Development and use of the incremental twitch subtraction MUNE method in mice.

Supplements to Clinical neurophysiology - 1 Jan 2009

Hegedus Janka, Jones Kelvin E, Gordon Tessa

Abstract excerpt

We have used a technique to estimate the number of functioning motor units (MUNE) innervating a muscle in mice based on twitch tension. The MUNE technique was verified by modeling twitch tensions from isolated ventral root stimulation. Analysis by twitch tensions allowed us to identify motor unit fiber types. The MUNE technique was used to compare normal mice with transgenic superoxide dismutase-1 mutation (G94A)...
