Degradation of myones as a consequence of disuse and denervation.
After denervation or immobilization in both slow and fast muscles of rabbits a rapid decrease in weight and protein content and a focal degeneration of cell ultrastructure were observed. As a consequence marked changes in the ratio of soluble to myofibrillar protein and in regulatory proteins of myofibrillar system occurred.
