Physics of muscle contraction [PDF]

open access: yesReports on Progress in Physics, 2018
In this paper we report, clarify and broaden various recent efforts to complement the chemistry-centered models of force generation in muscles by mechanics-centered models. The physical mechanisms of interest can be grouped into two classes: passive and active.

Characterization of Cecal Smooth Muscle Contraction in Laying Hens

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2021
The ceca play an important role in the physiology of the gastrointestinal tract in chickens. Nevertheless, there is a gap of knowledge regarding the functionality of the ceca in poultry, especially with respect to physiological cecal smooth muscle ...

Muscle Contraction [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2018
Muscle cells are designed to generate force and movement. There are three types of mammalian muscles-skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and move them relative to each other. Cardiac muscle comprises the heart, which pumps blood through the vasculature.

The Transient Mechanics of Muscle Require Only a Single Force-Producing Cross-Bridge State and a 100 Å Working Stroke

open access: yesBiology, 2020
An informative probe of myosin cross-bridge behaviour in active muscle is a mechanical transient experiment where, for example, a fully active muscle initially held at constant length is suddenly shortened to a new fixed length, providing a force ...

Auditory sEMG biofeedback for reducing muscle co‐contraction during pedaling

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2022
Muscle co‐contraction between the agonist and antagonist muscles often causes low energy efficiency or movement disturbances. Surface electromyography biofeedback (sEMG‐BF) has been used to train muscle activation or relaxation but it is unknown whether ...

Sensory gating and suppression of subjective peripheral sensations during voluntary muscle contraction

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2020
Background During voluntary muscle contraction, sensory information induced by electrostimulation of the nerves supplying the contracting muscle is inhibited and the somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) amplitude decreases.

Signaling in Muscle Contraction [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2015
Signaling pathways regulate contraction of striated (skeletal and cardiac) and smooth muscle. Although these are similar, there are striking differences in the pathways that can be attributed to the distinct functional roles of the different muscle types.
