## Abstract The signaling pathways that stimulate glucose uptake in response to muscle contraction are not well defined. Recently, we showed that carbachol, an acetylcholine analog, stimulates contraction of C2C12 myotube cultures and the rapid arrival of mycβepitope tagged GLUT4 glucose transporte

## Abstract The phospholipid composition of rat gastrocnemius muscles was assessed one to nine days after sciatic nerve transection was performed either close to the muscle (5β8 mm from the point of entrance of the nerve into the muscle for shortβstump nerve sections) or far from it (30β35 mm centr
Migration of myogenic cells occurs extensively during both embryogenesis and regeneration of skeletal muscle and is important in myoblast gene therapy, but little is known about factors that promote chemotaxis of these cells. We have used satellite cells from adult rats purified by Percoll density g
In order to measure force of contraction of the rat gastrocnemius muscle in the NMR spectrometer with a simultaneous observation of 31 P NMR spectra, an optical force transducer was constructed using gratings and optical fibers. Muscle contraction was accurately recorded in the spectrometer without
