Abstract:
SUMMARYMany mechanisms reduce the cost of muscle activity. Here, we describe a set of specializations that reduce the cost of contraction in the high-frequency twitches that are used by a wide variety of animals for either sound production or flight. Minimizing the cost of these contractions means that cellular ATP production can meet ATP demand and sustain the high contractile rate. Two classes of specialization are found that minimize the contractile cost. The first class reduces the muscle work required per contraction. Light appendages such as rattles, insect limbs and membranous wings tha

Abstract:
It has been suggested that during a skeletal muscle contraction the metabolic energy cost at the onset may be greater than the energy cost related to holding steady-state force. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of contraction duration on the metabolic energy cost and fatigue process in fully perfused contracting muscle in situ. Canine gastrocnemius muscle ( n = 6) was isolated, and two contractile periods (3 min of isometric, tetanic contractions with 45-min rest between) were conducted by each muscle in a balanced order design. The two contractile periods had sti

Abstract:
Previous studies have produced conflicting evidence as to whether sympathetic vasoconstriction is impaired in active skeletal muscle. Because alpha 2-, not alpha 1-, adrenergic vasoconstriction is attenuated by mild acidosis, we hypothesized that alpha 2-mediated sympathetic vasoconstriction would be attenuated in contracting glycolytic muscle, which produces more acidosis than oxidative muscle. We compared effects of lumbar sympathetic nerve stimulation and alpha-adrenergic agonists on arterial pressure, femoral blood flow, and force output during contractions of oxidative or glycolytic muscl

Force responses to transcranial magnetic stimulation of motor cortex (TMS) during exercise provide information about voluntary activation and contractile properties of the muscle.

Subjects performed isometric contractions of elbow flexors in two studies. Torque and EMG were recorded from elbow flexor and extensor muscles.

It is state of the art that muscle contraction dynamics is adequately described by a hyperbolic relation between muscle force and contraction velocity (Hill relation), thereby neglecting muscle internal mass inertia (first-order dynamics). Accordingly, the vast majority of modelling approaches also neglect muscle internal inertia. Assuming that such first-order contraction dynamics yet interacts with muscle internal mass distribution, this study investigates two questions: (i) what is the time scale on which the muscle responds to a force step?

Abstract It is well known that contracting the upper limbs can affect spinal reflexes of the lower limb muscle, via intraneuronal networks within the central nervous system. However, it remains unknown whether neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), which can generate muscle contractions without central commands from the cortex, can also play a role in such inter-limb facilitation. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare the effects of unilateral upper limb contractions using NMES and voluntary unilateral upper limb contractions on the inter-limb spinal reflex facilitation i

The principle of isochronism reflects constant contraction time for varying strengths of muscle contraction. This principle was studied for the innervation of the pelvic floor in humans using motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) and evoked pressure curves (EPCs) from the external anal sphincter muscle (EAS). MEPs and EPCs were simultaneously recorded after transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex. Voluntary contractions were also studied. Contraction times of the EAS were significantly longer in voluntary contractions (mean, 237 ms) than in EPCs (mean, 90 ms). Depending on either mode o

Abstract Falls are a major cause of injury in the elderly, including the vast majority of hip and wrist fractures, and a considerable portion of vertebral fractures. In the event of a fall, one’s risk for such an injury depends on bone strength, and the configuration and kinetic energy (KE) of the body at the instant it contacts the ground. Consideration of acts such as sitting and squatting suggests that a major determinant of KE is the amount of energy “absorbed” (or negative work performed) during the descent phase of the fall by eccentrically-contracting lower extremity muscles.

Humans have the inherent ability of performing highly dexterous and skillful tasks with their arms, involving maintenance of posture, movement, and interaction with the environment. The latter requires the human to control the dynamic characteristics of the upper limb musculoskeletal system.
