Figure 6.
Force-velocity relationships of control and MyBPC morphants. Data from intact trunk muscles during single twitch contractions of controls (open symbols and bar, n = 6) and MyBPC-2B morphants (black symbols and bar, n = 4). Velocity data were grouped according to afterload, and the mean values are shown in the diagram. A hyperbolic equation (see Results) was fitted to the data and extrapolated to determine the Vmax. The inset shows the mean Vmax values determined by fitting the equation to data of individual fibers. *, P < 0.05. Data are presented as mean ± SEM.
