The relation between fiber type differentiation and the expression of slow and fast myosin isoforms was examined in regenerating rat muscles after injection of a myotoxic agent, bupivacaine. The histochemical myosin ATPase reaction for fiber typing demonstrated that immature type 2C fibers differentiated into type 1, 2A and 2B fibers. Slow and fast myosin isoforms were demonstrated immunohistochemically using antibodies raised against myosins extracted from the slow-twitch soleus and fast-twitch tensor fasciae latae muscles of mature guinea pigs (anti-SOL, anti-TFL). The results showed that immature type 2C fibers destined to differentiate into type 1 fibers first reacted with anti-TFL only, and later reacted with both anti-TFL and anti-SOL, whereas those destined to differentiate into type 2A and 2B fibers reacted with anti-TFL only throughout regeneration. The significance of the myosin isoforms that react with anti-TFL in immature type 2C fibers was discussed.
