"Effects of high-pressure treatment on the structure and function of myofibrils"

【Significance】
The effect of high pressure (40–70 MPa) on the structure and function of myofibrils was investigated by high pressure microscopy. When pressure was applied to the myofibrils soaked in the relaxing solution, the sarcomere length did not change and the A-band shortened. In the case of the rigor solution, the A-band did not shorten, but the Z-line became thinner. Pressurization was proved to be a unique method for controlling the structure of myofibrils. As a result of measuring sarcomeric oscillation for functional evaluation, the total power decreased due to the pressurization process, but the average frequency did not change.
