n-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine has been researched along with Muscle Contraction in 6 studies
N-Methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine: An N-substituted amphetamine analog. It is a widely abused drug classified as a hallucinogen and causes marked, long-lasting changes in brain serotonergic systems. It is commonly referred to as MDMA or ecstasy.
3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine : A member of the class of benzodioxoles that is 1,3-benzodioxole substituted by a 2-(methylamino)propyl group at position 5.
Muscle Contraction: A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.

| "Consequently, the malignant hyperthermia status should not affect the calcium sensitivity of the contractile apparatus." | 1.38 | 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (Ecstasy) increases the sensitivity of the contractile apparatus to calcium ions in both malignant hyperthermia-susceptible and normal skeletal muscle fibres. ( Gerbershagen, MU; Graf, BM; Missler, G; Schütte, JK; Starosse, A; Wappler, F; Zink, W, 2012) |
| " The left-shift of the dose-response curve induced by MDMA was greater in normal than in MHS muscle." | 1.33 | 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (ecstasy) activates skeletal muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. ( Alt, A; Bufler, J; Heffron, JJ; Jurkat-Rott, K; Klingler, W; Lehmann-Horn, F; O'sullivan, G; Schlesinger, F, 2005) |
