Force transmission in skeletal muscle: from actomyosin to external
tendons. Kaufman and Geiger's research focus has been on
inhibitors of actomyosin contractility or actin microfilament assembly
that can effectively relax and alter the shape of the cells and tissue
architecture within the trabecular meshwork, working to improve the flow
of aqueous humor out of the eye. (6) The
ratio of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) to actomyosin adenosine
triphosphatase activity (qATPase) has been used as an estimate of this
relationship. |
