Term Name: transition between fast and slow fiber
Synonyms: transition between fast and slow fibre, transition fast-slow fiber, transition fast-slow fibre
Definition: The process of conversion of fast-contracting muscle fibers to a slower character. This may involve slowing of contractile rate, slow myosin gene induction, increase in oxidative metabolic properties, altered electrophysiology and altered innervation. This process also regulates skeletal muscle adapatation.
