Donnan potential of rabbit skeletal muscle myofibrils I: electrofluorochromometric detection of potential.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The fluorescence of the dye CC-6 [(3-hexyl-2-(3-hexyl-2-benzoxazolinylidene)-1-propenyl)-benzoxazolium iodide] has been shown to indicate Donnan potentials in rabbit skeletal muscle myofibrils. These results are in agreement with previously published work in which the potentials were measured with microelectrodes on glycerol-extraced muscle fibers. The magnitude of the Donnan potential of the myofibrils has been shown to be dependent on the state (rigor or relaxed) of the system.

A new reduced mathematical model to simulate the action potential in end plate of skeletal muscle fibers
Usually mathematicians use Hodgkin-Huxley model or FitzHug-Nagumo model to simulate action potentials of skeletal muscle fibers. These models are electrically excitable, but skeletal muscle fibers are stimulated chemically. To investigate skeletal muscle fibers we use a model with six ordinary differential equations. This dynamical system is sensitive to initial value of some variables so it is...
متن کاملTroponin subunit stoichiometry and content in rabbit skeletal muscle and myofibrils.
The quantity and molar ratio of the three troponin subunits to actin were determined in rabbit psoas muscle, muscle homogenates (800 X g pellet), and purified myofibrils. Proteins were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The quantities of the separated proteins were determined directly from the gel slices by amino acid analysis after correc...
متن کاملTroponin I from human skeletal and cardiac muscles.
1. Myofibrils from human skeletal muscle contained regulatory proteins exhibiting similar electrophoretic behaviour to those present in rabbit skeletal muscle. 2. All human skeletal muscles examined contained two forms of troponin I corresponding to the forms already characterized in fast and slow rabbit muscle. 3. The ratios of the amounts of the two forms of troponin I in different human skel...
متن کاملEffects of ionic parameters on behavior of a skeletal muscle fiber model
All living cells have a membrane which separates inside the cell from it's outside. There is a potential difference between inside and outside of the cell. This potential difference will change during an action potential. It is quite common to peruse action potentials of skeletal muscle fibers with the Hodgkin-Huxley model. Since Hodgkin and Huxley summarized some controlling currents like inwa...
متن کاملEffect of Resistance Exercise and Vitamin C Intake on Expression of Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase and Telomere Repeat Binding Factor-2 Genes and the Diameter and Number of Myofibrils in Old Rats
Introduction: Cell aging is one of the most important and fundamental step in cellular behavior and reduces muscle mass and myofibrils. This study aims to investigate the effect of resistance exercise along with vitamin C consumption on the expression of Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase (TERT) and Telomere Repeat Binding Factor-2 (TRF2) genes and the diameter and number of skeletal muscle myofi...
