In anaesthetised rats, Fos-immunoreactive and NADPH-diaphorase-positive neurons in the medulla and, for comparison, in the spinal cord were studied after fatiguing stimulation of the hindlimb muscles. Following both direct muscle stimulation and L5 ventral root stimulation, fatigue-related c-fos
The distribution of c-fos expression as a marker of neuronal activation and NADPH-diaphorase reactivity were examined in the cervical spinal cord, limbic structures and hypothalamus in anaesthetized rats after fatigue induced by intermittent high-rate (100 s(-1)) electrical stimulation of the dorsal
A comparison of the anatomy, fiber type profiles, and contractile properties of the wrist flexor muscles was undertaken in the cat. Isometric contractile characteristics were measured for each muscle. Three muscle fiber types, FG, FOG, and SO, were differentiated by staining cross sections of each
Motor units of the medial gastrocnemius (MG) and the single lateral gastrocnemius/soleus (LG/S) muscles of the opossum (Didelphis virginiana) were found to have uniformly slow contraction times relative to homologous muscles of the cat. Though a broad range of peak tetanic tensions was found among
A reexamination of the question of specificity of reinnervation of fast and slow muscle was undertaken using the original "self" nerve supply to the fast lateral gastrocnemius (LG) and slow soleus muscles in the rat hindlimb. This paradigm takes advantage of the unusual situation of a common nerve
1. This report describes selected histochemical and physiological properties of the motor units of adult cat soleus muscle approximately one year after self- and cross-reinnervation with the nerve of the heterogenous flexor hallucis longus (f.h.l.). Self-reinnervated f.h.l. motor units are also
The distribution of Fos-immunoreactive (Fos-ir) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d)-reactive neurons in the rat lumbar spinal cord was examined following muscle fatigue caused by intermittent high-rate (100 s(-1)) electrical stimulation of the triceps surae muscle or
The dithiolethione oltipraz is being developed as a chemopreventive agent for many malignancies, including colorectal cancer, on the basis of its in vivo protective activity against chemically induced tumors in a variety of animal models. This protection has been associated with an enhanced capacity
Myofibrillar proteins in muscles of the claws and abdomen of lobster, Homarus americanus, and the claws of fiddler crab, Uca pugnax, and land crab, Gecarcinus lateralis, have been analyzed with sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Fibers contained numerous isoforms of
This work tested whether the membrane electrical properties of cat motoneurons, the contractile properties of their muscle units, and the normal relationships among them would be restored 9 mo after section and resuture of their muscle nerve. Properties of medial gastrocnemius (MG) motor units were
The muscle fiber types and sizes in the M. stapedius (middle ear muscle) of the domestic chicken, Gallus gallus were determined histochemically on the basis of their reactions to myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase (mATPase), succinic dehydrogenase and NADH diaphorase. Only type II fibers were
The histochemical profiles of myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide diaphorase (NADDase), and phosphorylase (Pase) activities were studied in the respiratory muscles of the chicken. Most respiratory muscles contained fibers exhibiting 18 possible
BACKGROUND
Human placenta hydrolysate (hPH) has been utilized to improve menopausal, fatigue, liver function. Its high concentration of bioactive substances is known to produce including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive activities. However, its mechanisms of stress-induced
