PLASTICITY OF FIBER TYPE EXPRESSION OBJECTIVES (I and II) Methodology: • Electrophysiology: resting Em and action potential • Measurement of ion channel activity • Source of information Role of : • Calcineurin • nFAT • Nitric oxide (NO) • NOR-1
CaM- Binding domain Auto- Inhibitory Domain CATALYTIC DOMAIN CALCINEURIN Calcineurin A (CNA)
CALCINEURIN INCREASES mRNA LEVELS FOR MYOGLOBIN, SLOW TnI AND SARCOMERIC MITOCHONDRIAL CREATINE KINASE IN GASTROCNEMIUS MUSCLE
CALCINEURIN DECREASES mRNA LEVELS FOR PARVALBUMIN AND MUSCLE CREATINE KINASE IN GASTROCNEMIUS MUSCLE
