Inhibition of myosin light-chain phosphorylation inverts the birefringence response of porcine airway smooth muscle

Muscle birefringence, caused mainly by parallel thick filaments, increases in smooth muscle during stimulation, signalling thick filament formation upon activation. The reverse occurs in skeletal muscle, where a decrease in birefringence has been correlated with crossbridge movement away from the th...
