1. Histological evidence suggests that the force deficit associated with eccentric contraction‐
induced muscle injury is due to structural damage to contractile elements within the muscle
fibre. Alternatively, the force deficit could be explained by an inability to activate the
contractile proteins. It was the objective of this study to investigate the latter possibility. 2.
Mouse soleus muscles were isolated, placed in an oxygenated Krebs‐Ringer buffer at 37
degrees C, and baseline measurements were made. The muscle then performed one of …
