Reactive oxygen in skeletal muscle. II. Extracellular release of free radicals

Reid, M. B., Shoji, T., Moody, M. R., Entman, M. L.·1992·Journal of Applied Physiology

Abstract

We have tested the hypothesis that diaphragm muscle fibers release superoxide anion radicals (O2-.) into the extracellular space. Fiber bundles were isolated from rat diaphragm and incubated in Krebs-Ringer solution containing cytochrome c (10(-5) M), a standard assay for O2-.. Bundles were either passive or active, i.e., directly stimulated to contract rhythmically. After 1 h, absorbance of reduced cytochrome c in the incubation medium was measured at 550 nm. Absorbance was greater in medium exposed to passive muscle than in medium without muscle (P < 0.01), indicating O2-. release by passive muscle. Absorbance was greater in medium exposed to active muscle than in that exposed to passive muscle (P < 0.01), an increase inhibited by superoxide dismutase (10(3) U/ml). Active bundles fatigued; bundles developing the lowest final stresses produced the greatest absorbance increases (P < 0.001), suggesting that the magnitude of fatigue was inversely related to O2-. release. We conclude that O2-. is released by diaphragm myocytes into the interstitium and surrounding medium, a process accelerated by fatiguing muscular contractions.

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.
