Sentence examples for the sustained contraction from inspiring English sources

The reduced ability of Dicer KO VSM to relax is apparent both following washout of HK-induced contraction and in the sustained contraction to 3 µM 5-HT which clearly differs from the transient contraction in Ctrl vessels.

K+ (80 mM) was added to induce the sustained contraction.

The slope of the EMG RMS/force (neuromuscular efficiency) and MF/force (muscle composition) relationships were computed during the ramp contractions while the slope of the EMG RMS/time and MF/time relationships (muscle fatigue) were computed during the sustained contraction.

We also demonstrated that pretreatment with human recombinant relaxin-2 reduced the sustained MLC phosphorylation that was caused by endothelin-1 stimulation in HBVSMC, suggesting that relaxin inhibits the endothelin-1-induced sustained contraction in the cerebral arteries.

F1 TnC is responsible for activating the muscle following a stretch, whereas F2 TnC produces a sustained contraction, the magnitude of which depends on the concentration of Ca2+ in the fiber.

More than 90 percent of such headaches result from distension of the extracranial arteries or from sustained contraction of the face and neck muscles.

F2 TnC has two Ca2+ binding sites, one in each lobe, and produces a sustained contraction, the magnitude of which is dependent on the Ca2+ concentration (20).

Furthermore, since localized fatigue was induced after 90 seconds of sustained contraction, the conclusions cannot be extrapolated to situations where fatigue was caused by activity of a different duration or intensity.

ET-1 induced a strong and sustained contraction of the human uterine artery, which was mediated by both ETA and ETB receptors.

A sequence of stimuli (see Methods) reliably caused a sustained contraction of the muscle that resulted in a distortion and forward movement of the coxal end of the fluorescent pleural arch on the stimulated side.

The K+ (80 mM) was added to the tissue bath, which produced a sustained contraction.
