Ion pathways in transverse tubules. Quantification of receptors in membranes isolated from frog and rabbit skeletal muscle
(Elsevier, 1986)
The presence of four cation pathways in membrane vesicles isolated from transverse tubules of frog and
rabbit skeletal muscle was studied by measuring binding of specific blockers. Transverse tubules purified
from frog ...
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, ...
mRNA-seq reveals skeletal muscle atrophy in response to handling stress in a marine teleost, the red cusk-eel (Genypterus chilensis)
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Background: Fish reared under intensive conditions are repeatedly exposed to stress, which negatively impacts growth. Although most fish follow a conserved pattern of stress response, with increased concentrations of ...
Sarcoplasmic reticulum release channels from frog skeletal muscle display two types of calcium dependence
(1993)
Calcium channels derived from sarcoplasmic reticulum of frog skeletal muscle were fused with planar lipid bilayers. Fractional open times displayed two types of calcium dependence: (i) blockable channels showed a bell-shaped ...
Modulation of the activity of the transverse tubule Mg2+ATPase from frog skeletal muscle by a monoclonal antibody in vitro
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1991)
We have established several hybridoma lines that produce monoclonal antibodies against transverse tubule (t-tubule) proteins from frog skeletal muscle. The specificity of these antibodies was characterized by ELISA and ...
Lipid composition of purified transverse tubule membranes isolated from amphibian skeletal muscle
(1987)
The level and proportion of lipids and their fatty acid composition were analyzed in highly purified transverse tubule membranes of amphibian skeletal muscle. Tubule membranes show (a) a higher content of lipids, (b) a ...
Calcium microdomains and gene expression in neurons and skeletal muscle cells
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2006-12)
Neurons generate particular calcium microdomains in response to different stimuli. Calcium microdomains have a central role in a variety of neuronal functions. In particular, calcium microdomains participate in long-lasting ...
