| Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present studies were to investigate the effects of electrical stimulation and the mechanisms on skeletal muscle atrophy in heart failure. Skeletal muscle atrophy was induced by right heart failure and inactivity. Electrical stimulation inhibited overexpression of ubiquitinated proteins by inactivity and attenuated loss of muscle mass. Although electrical stimulation with low-frequency current failed in the prevention of muscle atrophy in deep layer, electrical stimulation with premodulated interferential current could prevent it.
