Summary of the Values of Passive Force, Maximal Active Force, pCa₅₀, ΔpCa₅₀, and n_H in cTn-reconstituted Rabbit Psoas Muscle

	SL	Passive force	Maximal force	pCa50	ΔpCa50	nH
	μm	mN/mm2	mN/mm2
Fig. 2 C
Rabbit psoas (+cTn)	1.9	∼0	137.61 ± 8.67b (167.24 ± 13.15b)	5.66 ± 0.04a		2.97 ± 0.34a
	2.3	4.72 ± 0.82b	183.43 ± 10.81b	5.89 ± 0.05a	0.24 ± 0.02a	2.23 ± 0.13a,b

Passive force was obtained at the steady state. Numbers in parentheses indicate maximal force values obtained prior to cTn reconstitution (P < 0.05 compared with corresponding values obtained after cTn reconstitution). n_H decreased upon cTn reconstitution (see Table I), consistent with previous studies (Piroddi et al., 2003; de Tombe et al., 2007).

^aP < 0.05 compared with corresponding values for control rabbit psoas muscle (Table I).

^bP < 0.05 compared with corresponding values for control PLV (Table I;).
