Tension responses of frog skeletal muscle to ramp and step length changes.

Abstract:

:Tension responses to ramp shortening of varying speed in whole muscle or single fibres from the plateau of an isometric tetanus, revealed at least two distinct phases. There was a fast initial drop in tension followed by a change of slope and a definite inflexion on the tension record. As the velocity of the imposed length change was increased, the inflexion point appeared at a lower tension. Similar inflexions were not observed during ramp releases to an elastic band or a segment of semitendinosus tendon. The tension records obtained with moderately fast ramp length changes to contracting muscle reflect the T1 and T2 phases of the tension transients.
