SA magnitude of Drosophila jump muscle fibers

ASA (mN/mm2) RSA (mN/mm2) FSA(mN/mm2) FSA/Fo n
Control 3.8 ± 0.4 1.2 ± 0.3 2.6 ± 0.5 0.12 ± 0.02 10
EMB 8.8 ± 0.8a 2.0 ± 0.6 6.8 ± 1.0a 0.20 ± 0.03a 16

Values are mean ± SE; n, number of fibers. ASA total stretch-activated tension measured at pCa 5.0, 8 mM Pi, RSA passive elastic component of stretch-activated tension measured at pCa 8.0, FSA net stretch-activated tension (FSA = ASA-RSA).
