Current Understanding of Residual Force Enhancement: Cross-Bridge Component and Non-Cross-Bridge Component
Muscle contraction is initiated by the interaction between actin and myosin filaments. The sliding of actin filaments relative to myosin filaments is produced by cross-bridge cycling, which is governed by the theoretical framework of the cross-bridge theory. The cross-bridge theory explains well a n...
