Short-term electrical stimulation alters tongue muscle fibre type composition.

Archives of oral biology - 1 Jun 2007

Pae Eung-Kwon, Hyatt Jon-Philippe K, Wu Jennifer, Chien Patricia

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To examine whether short-term exogenous activation of a tongue muscle induced a phenotypic shift from a fast to a slow fibre-type, and thus assess a potential therapeutic avenue to protect against obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). METHODS: New Zealand White rabbit genioglossus (GG) muscle, characteristically a fast muscle, was continuously stimulated at a frequency attributed to slow muscle (10Hz, 3V DC...
