  • Title: Changes of energy metabolism, myosin light chain composition, lactate dehydrogenase isozyme pattern and fibre type distribution of denervated fast-twitch muscle from rabbit after low frequency stimulation.
    Author: Reichmann H, Nix WA.
    Journal: Pflugers Arch; 1985 Oct; 405(3):244-9. PubMed ID: 4069981.
    Abstract:
    The influence of low frequency (8-10 Hz) electrical stimulation on denervated fast-twitch muscle from rabbit was investigated. Prolonged direct stimulation of denervated muscle resulted in higher oxidative enzyme activities. Furthermore, single fibre analyses for succinate dehydrogenase showed a more uniform distribution of activity in stimulated-denervated muscle when compared to normal muscle. As was also the case following stimulation of innervated muscle, glycolytic enzymes were decreased in activity and the LDH-isozyme pattern was also shifted towards heart type. No change of the myosin light chain pattern could be observed after 56 days of stimulation.
