Fig. 6. The effects of temperature on stretch-induced enhancement of twitch force in indirectly stimulated muscle. Twitch forces are expressed as values relative to the force obtained by direct stimulation at one muscle length (l0). The thick line is the same regression curve as shown in Fig. 5A. Forces were measured 2 min after stretching each preparation from l0 to the length indicated on the abscissa at three different temperatures; open circles, 4°C (N=5); filled triangles, 12°C (N=4); open squares, 22°C (N=4). All animals had been kept for more than 2 months at room temperature before the experiment.
