| Abstract | Single, intact, frog muscle fibres were injected electrophoretically with a Ca2+-sensitive metallochromic dye, Arsenazo III, to a local concentration of 1.2-1.5 mmol/l. The intracellular concentration of free Mg2+, estimated photometrically in the presence of approximately millimolar Arsenazo III, was 3-4 mmol/l in fibres at rest. Ca2+-related changes in dye absorbance were characterized in vitro using 1 mM-Arsenazo III in solutions approximating the intracellular ionic environment. Isometric twitch contractions and related changes in light transmittance of dye-injected regions of fibre were recorded at 2.4 and 3.0 micron sarcomere lengths, at 15 degrees C. A method was developed for separating Ca2+ transients from larger, movement-related optical changes recorded as compound signals during fibre contraction. Decreases in twitch amplitude by about one-third following dye injection, together with the in vitro characteristics of the dye, suggested that millimolar intracellular Arsenazo III acted as a major Ca2+ buffer and inhibited the activation of contractile filaments. The onset of both the Ca2+ transient and latency relaxation occurred at virtually the same time in the twitch response and neither of those transition times was altered significantly with changes in sarcomere length from 2.4 to 3.0 micron. The amount of activation Ca2+ released in dye-injected regions of fibres following a single stimulus was about 0.3 mmol/l at 2.4 micron sarcomere length. The rate of rise and the amplitude of the Ca2+ transient were reversibly decreased with increase in sarcomere length from 2.4 to 3.0 micron. That finding is reviewed in relation to other evidence indicating length dependence of the intracellular release and distribution of activation Ca2+ up to 3.9 micron sarcomere length. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
