Abstract
Regional differences in histochemical properties along the length of rat intrafusal muscle fibers were examined. Outside the muscle spindle capsule the nuclear bag fibers lose their hitherto characteristic ATPase activity and stain in a manner similar to that of extrafusal type I muscle fibers, perhaps in relationship to spindle skeletofusimotor innervation.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
