Endogenous triacylglycerol utilization by rat skeletal muscle during tetanic stimulation

Abstract

An isolated perfused rat hindquarter preparation was used to examine the utilization of endogenous triacylglycerol (TG) during 20 min of electrical stimulation. The sciatic nerve was stimulated with maximal tetanic trains at 0.5 Hz. The isometric tension generated by the gastrocnemius-plantaris-soleus muscle group was recorded, and muscle samples were taken pre- and poststimulation. Twenty minutes of stimulation significantly reduced endogenous …
