| Abstract | Mechanically skinned muscle fibres from the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle of the rat were electrically stimulated in solutions mimicking the myoplasmic environment in the resting muscle fibre but containing different [ADP] of < 0.1 μm, 40 μm and 1.0 mm, to investigate the effects of myoplasmic ADP on the twitch response. The amplitude of the twitch response markedly and gradually decreased by 47 ± 6% (n = 9) as [ADP] was increased from < 0.1 μm to 40 μm without changing [Ca2+] in the myoplamsic solution (50 nm). The times for the twitch to rise from 10 to 90% (T rise,10-90) and to decrease from 90 to 10% (T fall,90-10) initially increased by 8 and 21% and then decreased by 16 and 30% (compared to controls), respectively, at steady state. When [ADP] was raised from < 0.1 μm to 1.0 mm and fibres were electrically stimulated, the first response was biphasic and very prolonged (by at least a factor of 10) but of an amplitude similar to that in the control solution. The following twitch response and the steady state twitch responses were much reduced in size by about a factor of 6 and more prolonged by about 40% compared to control responses. All these ADP effects were fully reversible and appear to be predominantly due to several ADP-dependent alterations in SR Ca2+ handling properties (ADP-dependent decrease in SR Ca2+ capacity together with an increase in Ca2+ binding to the SR pump sites facing the myoplasm). The ADP-dependent effects on the contractile apparatus and Ca2+ regulatory system were relatively minor. Taken together, the results demonstrate that ADP accumulation is likely to play a crucial role in metabolic fatigue of skeletal muscle and can explain the marked reduction in the amplitude and the slower time course of the twitch response during fatigue as well as the elevation of myoplasmic [Ca2+] in fatigued fibres at rest. |

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.
