taurine and Muscle Contraction

taurine has been researched along with Muscle Contraction in 71 studies

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.

" There was a sinistral shift of the GABA dose-response curve in the presence of 10 pM cortisol, with a significant potentiation of the GABA-induced contractions over the lower dose range of GABA (3-30 microM), whereas 100 nM cortisol caused a non-parallel dextral shift of the GABA dose-response curve, with a depression of the maximum GABA response indicative of non-competitive antagonism."1.27Cortisol: a potent biphasic modulator at GABAA-receptor complexes in the guinea pig isolated ileum.
