Abstract

Six-day-old chick skeletal muscle (extensor digitorum longus) was incubated in the presence of corticosterone (CTC; 0, 3, 30, and 300 ng/ml) for 2 h at 37 degrees C. Tyrosine and N (tau)-methylhistidine releases, as indices of total muscle and myofibrillar proteolysis, were increased by CTC but with different dose responses, indicating an independent regulation of myofibrillar and non-myofibrillar protein degradation.
