Effect of hydrogen peroxide and dithiothreitol on contractile function of single skeletal muscle fibres from the mouse
Open accessAbstract
1. We used intact single fibres from a mouse foot muscle to study the role of oxidation-reduction in the modulation of contractile function. 2. The oxidant hydrogen peroxide (H2O2, 100-300 microM) for brief periods did not change myoplasmic Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) during submaximal tetani. However, force increased by 27 % during the same contractions. 3. The effects of H2O2 were time dependent. Prolonged exposures resulted in increased resting and tetanic [Ca2+]i, while force was significantly diminished. The force decline was mainly due to reduced myofibrillar Ca2+ sensitivity. There was also evidence of altered sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) function: passive Ca2+ leak was increased and Ca2+ uptake was decreased. 4. The reductant dithiothreitol (DTT, 0.5-1 mM) did not change tetanic [Ca2+]i, but decreased force by over 40 %. This was completely reversed by subsequent incubations with H2O2. The force decline induced by prolonged exposure to H2O2 was reversed by subsequent exposure to DTT. 5. These results show that the elements of the contractile machinery are differentially responsive to changes in the oxidation-reduction balance of the muscle fibres. Myofibrillar Ca2+ sensitivity appears to be especially susceptible, while the SR functions (Ca2+ leak and uptake) are less so.

NaNO2 administration can increase cytosolic [Ca2+] without altering force production at a supraphysiological PO2, or lower cytosolic [Ca2+] concomitant with lower submaximal, but not maximal, force at a physiological PO2, during single evoked isometric contractions in isolated mouse muscle fibers.
“There is also previous evidence indicating that NaNO2 administration can increase cytosolic [Ca2+] without altering force production at a supraphysiological PO2 [134], or lower cytosolic [Ca2+] concomitant with lower submaximal, but not maximal, force at a physiological PO2 [118], during single evoked isometric contractions in isolated mouse muscle fibers.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
