✍ Thomas G. Sutlive; Mary S. Shall; J. Ross McClung; Stephen J. Goldberg 📂 Article 📅 2000 🏛 John Wiley and Sons 🌐 English ⚖ 338 KB 👁 2 views

The contractile characteristics of individual mammalian tongue muscles have rarely been investigated, in contrast to spinal cordinnervated and extraocular muscles. Therefore, whole muscle and motor unit contractile forces, plus muscle fiber types, were studied in the genioglossus, the major protruso

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

This anatomical investigation was prompted by the incomplete knowledge of the myotopic organization of the dorsal subdivison of the hypoglossal nucleus. Intrinsic muscle motoneurons were not segregated and labeled previously with regard to the lateral division of the hypoglossal nerve. Also, motoneu

In the rat isolated main pulmonary artery, we investigated the effect of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (genistein) and that of a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor (phenylarsine oxide) on agonist-induced contraction. Genistein (10 microM) reduced the amplitude of the contraction evoked by noradrenaline (0

## Abstract Increased phosphorylation of the 70‐kDa ribosomal S6 kinase (p70S6k) signaling is strongly correlated with the degree of muscle adaptation following exercise. Herein we compare the phosphorylation of p70S6k, Akt, and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) in the tibialis anterior (TA) mus
