Calcium sensitivity of residual force enhancement in rabbit skinned fibers.
Isometric force after active stretch of muscles is higher than the purely isometric force at the corresponding length. This property is termed residual force enhancement. Active force in skeletal muscle depends on calcium attachment characteristics to the regulatory proteins. Passive force has been shown to influence calcium attachment characteristics, specifically the sarcomere length dependen...
متن کاملCalcium-gated calcium channels in sarcoplasmic reticulum of rabbit skinned skeletal muscle fibers
The action of ruthenium red (RR) on Ca2+ loading by and Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of chemically skinned skeletal muscle fibers of the rabbit was investigated. Ca2+ loading, in the presence of the precipitating anion pyrophosphate, was monitored by a light-scattering method. Ca2+ release was indirectly measured by following tension development evoked by caffeine. Stimulat...
متن کاملInfluence of residual force enhancement and elongation of attached cross‐bridges on stretch‐shortening cycle in skinned muscle fibers
Increased muscle force during stretch-shortening cycles (SSCs) has been widely examined. However, the mechanisms causing increased muscle force in SSCs remain unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of residual force enhancement and elongation of attached cross-bridges on the work enhancement in SSCs. For the Control condition, skinned rabbit soleus fibers were elongat...
متن کاملEnhancement of Force Generated by Individual Myosin Heads in Skinned Rabbit Psoas Muscle Fibers at Low Ionic Strength
Although evidence has been presented that, at low ionic strength, myosin heads in relaxed skeletal muscle fibers form linkages with actin filaments, the effect of low ionic strength on contraction characteristics of Ca(2+)-activated muscle fibers has not yet been studied in detail. To give information about the mechanism of muscle contraction, we have examined the effect of low ionic strength o...
متن کاملCalcium-Activated Tension of Skinned Muscle Fibers of the Frog
The influence of MgATP on the Ga(++)-activated isometric tension of skinned frog muscle fibers was examined in solutions containing: Mg(++) = 5 mM, creatine phosphate (CP) = 14.5 mM, creatinephosphokinase (CPK) = 1 mg/ml, total EGTA = 7 mM, CaCl(2), KCl, imidazole >/= 20 mM so that ionic strength = 0.15, pH = 7.00, and MgATP = 2 mM, 0.1 mM, or 20 microM. CP and CPK were necessary for these expe...
