## Abstract Lizard skeletal muscle fiber types were investigated inthe iliofibularis (IF) muscle of the desert iguana (__Dipsosaurus dorsalis__). Three fiber types were identified based on histochemical staining for myosin ATPase (mATPase), succinic dehydrogenase (SDH), and Ξ±glycerophosphate dehydr

Dorsiflexion of one unloaded hind limb caused hypertrophy of the soleus relative to weight-bearing controls and faster growth of the plantaris and gastrocnemius muscles relative to the contralateral freely moving muscles. Unloading of the soleus muscle diminished primarily myofibrillar proteins wher
## Abstract Guinea pig soleus, medial gastrocnemius and vastus lateralis muscles were compared for spindle density and distribution, number of intrafusal fibers per spindle and histochemical appearance of the axial bundle. A total of 326 spindles was used in the comparisons. Spindle density was ove
The effects of thyrotoxicosis on the contractile properties and development of muscle fatigue in the slow soleus (SOL) and fast extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles were examined in rats given 3 mg of Lthyroxine and 1 mg of L-triiodothyronine per kilogram of diet for 6 weeks. The hormone treatmen
## Abstract The clinical success of limb replantation and tissue transfer is partly dependent on the duration of ischemia experienced by the amputated part. This study focused primarily on the damage that occurs during this ischemic period. An experimental system was implemented that allowed the ob
