Stress relaxation in muscle

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B - Biological Sciences, 1957
Tension decay following stretch (stress relaxation) has been studied in resting long-fibred smooth and striated muscles. In both types of muscle, tension decays rapidly at first and then more slowly; the decay curve can be resolved into two exponential components, neither of which is significantly affected by changes in temperature or speed of stretch.

Changes in acetylcholine receptor number in muscle from critically ill patients receiving muscle relaxants: an investigation of the molecular mechanism of prolonged paralysis.

Critical Care Medicine, 1995
OBJECTIVE Previous reports have described prolonged paralysis after the administration of muscle relaxants in critically ill patients. The purpose of this study was to examine possible pathophysiologic causes for this paralysis by measuring muscle-type ...

Muscle Relaxants

2006
Publisher Summary Muscle relaxants, also known as myorelaxants, are a large group of chemical compounds that have the ability to relax skeletal muscle. These are a separate class of drugs used during intubations and surgery to reduce the need for anesthesia and facilitate intubation.
