Chemically skinned fibres from soleus and plantaris rat muscles were used to compare the contractile properties of slow and fast muscles. The maximal isometric tension appeared larger in plantaris than in soleus fibres. The apparent Ca z + threshold for activation was lower in slow than in fast fibr

Contractile properties and innervation patterns were determined in identified single fibers from the iliofibularis muscle of the desert iguana, Dipsosaurus dorsalis. Single fibers from both the red and white regions of the iliofibularis muscle were dissected along their length under oil and a portio
Bundles of 20-30 fast muscle fibres were isolated from the abdominal myotomes of the short-horned sculpin (Myoxocephalus scorpius L.). The energy cost of contraction was measured during oscillatory work at 4 ~ and 15 ~ following treatment with iodoacetate and nitrogen gas to block glycolysis and aer
Nerve-intact muscle regenerates were prepared by ischemic-toxic injury of slow soleus (SOL) and fast extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles of the rat. Rapid innervation of regenerating myotubes modified intrinsic patterns of AChE molecular forms, revealed by velocity sedimentation in linear sucros
