Figure 2

ROS mediated fatigue and Ca++-sensitivity. Force-calcium relation plotted during fatigue of intact mouse flexor brevis muscle fibers stimulated at 100 Hz, at 37°C. Force expressed relative to rested value under control conditions. Fatigue under control conditions produced a strong rightward shift in the relation and depressed maximal force. Maximal force but not Ca++-sensitivity was restored with caffeine. Treatment with dithiothreitol (DTT) restored Ca++-sensitivity.
