[Changes in the transverse striated musculature during treatment with the pesticide, Neguvon, and TMB-4 reactivator]. 1979

T Dzhirkolova, and Kh Dishovski, and G Rusev

The authors found that the contractile activity of isolated myofibers as-well as superprecipitation of myosin B were reduced after intoxication of white rats with 1/2 of dose of LD50 of neguvon. The reaktivator of cholinesterase TMB-4 (20 mg/kg) recovered the contractile capability of myofibres even on the third day after treatment, but superprecipitation of myosin B-after the twentieth day.

D009119	Muscle Contraction	A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
