Potentiation of smooth muscle contractility after rapid changes in isotonic force

Potentiation of smooth muscle contractility after rapid changes in isotonic force

The sudden application of step increases in afterload arrested the isotonic shortening of electrically stimulated ovarian ligament smooth muscle strips from rabbits. Force steps were chosen to produce, after initial rapid yielding, a quasi-steady state in which muscle length and force remained const...
