Effects of Electrical Stimulation on Molecular Forms of Butyrylcholinesterase in Denervated Fast and Slow Latissimus Dorsi Muscles of Newly Hatched Chicken
Abstract:The effects of denervation and direct electrical stimulation upon the activity and the molecular form distribution of butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) were studied in fast-twitch posterior latissimus dorsi (PLD) and in slow-tonic anterior latissimus dorsi (ALD) muscles of newly hatched chicken. In PLD muscle, denervation performed at day 2 substantially reduced the rate of rapid decrease of BuChE specific activity which takes place during normal development, whereas in the case of ALD muscle little change was obs… Show more
