Crossbridge (CB) properties were investigated in isolated diaphragm of rabbits during congestive heart failure (CHF, n=9) induced by chronic volume and pressure overload. This model induced cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Controls (C) were prepared (n=14). Compared to C, peak tension in CHF fell by 57% in twitch and by 40% in tetanus; Vmax declined by 47% in twitch and by 48% in tetanus. Our study provided an analytical means of calculating from A. F. Huxley's equations the rate constants for CB attachment and detachment, CB single force (
), CB number per mm3 (m'), peak mechanical efficiency (Effmax), and turnover rate of myosin ATPase (kcat); m',
, and Effmax were lower in CHF than in C in both twitch and tetanus. The marked decline in m' and
accounted for the fall in diaphragm strength. In the overall population of C and CHF, Effmax was linearly related to
. Conversely, there was no relationship between Vmax and kcat. Dissociation between Vmax and kcat might be explained by the crucial role attributed to two apparently nonconserved surface `loops' on the motor domain of myosin head.Lecarpentier, Y., Chemla, D., Blanc, F.
