Single Muscle Fibre Contractile Properties in Young and Old Men and Women
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine whether there was an age-related decline in the isometric and isotonic contractile function of permeabilized slow (MHC I) and fast (MHC IIa) single muscle fibres. Vastus lateralis muscle fibres from six young men (YM; 25 +/- 1 years), six young women (YW; 25 +/- 1 years), six old men (OM; 80 +/- 4 years) and six old women (OW; 78 +/- 2 years) were studied at 15 degrees C for in vitro force-velocity...
