Skeletal muscles with antagonistic muscular actions: morphological, contractile and metabolic characteristics
(Soc Chilena Anatomia, 2014)
Eucalyptol, an essential oil, reduces contractile activity in rat cardiac muscle
(2005-03)
Eucalyptol is an essential oil that relaxes bronchial and vascular smooth muscle although its direct actions on isolated myocardium have not been reported. We investigated a putative negative inotropic effect of the oil ...
Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) affects the excitable and contractile properties of innervated skeletal muscles
(Society of Biology of Chile, 2003)
The well-established trophic role of CNTF upon neurons led to performing clinical trials in patients of
neurodegenerative diseases. However, trials were suspended due to side effects such as severe weight loss, hyperalgesia, ...
Intestine of dystrophic mice presents enhanced contractile resistance to stretching despite morphological impairment
(Amer Physiological Soc, 2014-02-01)
Protein dystrophin is a component of the dystrophin-associated protein complex, which links the contractile machinery to the plasma membrane and to the extra-cellular matrix. Its absence leads to a condition known as ...
Surface electromyography of facial muscles during natural and artificial feeding of infants
(2006-03-01)
Objective: To measure and compare the activity of the masseter, temporalis and buccinator muscles in different infant feeding methods. Method: Cross-sectional study of 60 full-term infants with no intercurrent diseases, ...

Effects of cholinergic drugs and 4-aminopyridine on cat ciliary muscle contractility
(1985)
The effects of some cholinergic agents and 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) on neurally mediated contractions of in vitro cat ciliary muscle preparations were studied. The contractile response to trains of stimuli was enhanced by ...
