Abstract: | Myosin ATPase and succinic dehydrogenase activity and fast myosin (indirect immunochemical test) were assayed in m. soleus of guinea-pigs after the administration of T4 (200 micrograms/kg) to animals every day for 3 weeks. This was followed by the application of 10 mM colchicine solution to sciatic nerve for 6 min. Fast muscle fibers and the line of precipitation with antiserum to fast myosin were revealed in soleus muscle of experimental animals after the application of colchicine and T4 injection. |
