Rat fiber data warrant no clinical extrapolation; leaves open human translation while extending mechanistic understanding of fiber-type coupling.
Excitation-contraction coupling characteristics of mechanically skinned rat single muscle fibers are related to myosin heavy chain-based fiber type and the muscle of origin.
Goodman et al. (2003) studied this question.
