| Research Abstract |
This scientific research in rehabilitation medicine was performed in order to clarify the adaptation phenomenon of skeletal muscle, motor neuron and neuromuscular junction followed by muscle contraction induced by electric stimulation of sciatic nerve in rats. Related factors of the adaptation phenomenon were studied by immunohistological observation and molecular biology analysis. As a result, there were increased expression of a factor relevant to muscle hypertrophy and repair and a factor participant in maturity of neuromuscular junction, which location and partial signal transfer were revealed in this study.
