Measurement of Lateral Transmission of Force in the Extensor Digitorum Longus Muscle of Young and Old Mice
The main function of skeletal muscles is to generate force. The force developed by myofiber contraction is transmitted to the tendon. There are two pathways of force transmission from myofibers to tendons: longitudinal transmission that depends on tension elicited via the myotendinous junction and l...
