چکیده

Effects of 5 kinds of fluorides on the twitch of the sartorius muscle of the bull frog were investigated. All of the fluorides (0.1-2.0 mM) enhanced the twitch evoked by nerve stimulation. The extents of enhancement at 2.0 mM were in the order: stannous fluoride much greater than potassium fluoride greater than sodium silico fluoride greater than sodium fluoride greater than diammine silver fluoride. The extent of each enhancement was larger than that in the case of direct stimulation of the muscle. These findings show that fluorides commonly enhance the twitch of skeletal muscle and that the extent of enhancement is related to the properties of cations included in the fluoride.

WEBB, GEORGE Il. Efects of surfactants on the twitch tension uf frog sartorius muscle. Am. J. Physiol. 207(2) : 397-401. 196+--Many types of cells show permeability increases to ions and to various uncharged molecules when exposed to surface-active agents (surfactants) . Nonionic surfactants are less effective than ionic surf’actants in increasing permeability and in depolarizing nerve and musc...

The Pattern of Activation in the Sartorius Muscle of the Frog

The development of isometric twitch tension has been compared with the redevelopment of isometric tension in the fully active frog sartorius muscle following release. At 0 degrees C the rate of rise of isometric twitch tension is the same as that for the muscle in the fully active state at the same tension but not until about 40 msec. after the stimulus and then only for a few milliseconds. The...

Initial Heat Production in Isometric Frog Muscle at 15°C

An infrared radiation-detecting system was used to measure initial heat production in bull frog sartorius muscle at 15 degrees C. Numerous tests with the system showed that thermal artifacts were not noticeable. Many previous measurements with myothermic thermopiles were corroborated with this method. In addition, a cooling phase as large as 0.39 of peak exothermicity was found during and after...

Volume change and pressure development in muscle during contraction.

Volume change and pressure development in muscle during contraction. 1967.-Volume changes recorded in isometric and isotonic twitches of gastrocnemius muscle are similar to those recorded in sartorius muscle. The major differences are the greater difficulty in approaching isometric recording conditions in the gastrocnemius muscle and the possibility that a portion of the volume change could be ...

Quinine and Caffeine Effects on 45Ca Movements in Frog Sartorius Muscle

1 mM caffeine, which produces only twitch potentiation and not contracture in frog sartorius muscle, increases both the uptake and release of (45)Ca in this muscle by about 50 %, thus acting like higher, contracture-producing concentrations but less intensely. Quinine increases the rate of release of (45)Ca from frog sartorius but not from the Achilles tendon. The thresholds for the quinine eff...
