abstract：:Taurine content of 199 clinical muscle biopsies was determined and correlated to histometric data of 121 cases. Taurine concentration in muscles was markedly dependent on fiber type distribution, taurine being more abundant in the slow, oxidative type 1 fibers than in the type 2 fibers. Taurine concentration rose slig...
