Electrostimulation-induced contractions in EDL and SOL muscles from tamoxifen-injected Stac3 fl/fl and Stac3 fl/fl Tg Cre mice at 8 weeks of age. a Representative twitch (1 Hz) and tetanic (150 Hz) contractile responses. b Stress-frequency relationships. Frequencies of electrostimulation used were 1, 30, 50, 80, 100, and 150 Hz. Force was normalized to the average cross-sectional area of the muscle to yield stress (mN/mm2). Asterisks indicate P < 0.05, Stac3 fl/fl Tg Cre versus Stac3 fl/fl at the same frequency (n = 4 mice for Stac3 fl/fl; n = 5 mice for Stac3 fl/fl Tg Cre)
