This volume presents the proceedings of a muscle symposium, which
was supported by the grant from the Fujihara Foundation of Science
to be held as the Fourth Fujihara Seminar on October 28 -November
1, 2002, at Hakone, Japan. The Fujihara Seminar covers all fields
of natural science, while only one proposal is granted every year.
It is therefore a great honor for me to be able to organize this
meeting. Before this symposium, I have organized muscle symposia
five times, and published the proceedings: " Cross-bridge Mechanism
in Muscle Contraction (University of Tokyo Press, 1978),
"Contractile Mechanisms in Muscle" (plenum, 1984); "Molecular
Mechanisms of Muscle Contraction" (plenum, 1988); "Mechanism of
MyofIlament Sliding in Muscle contraction" (plenum, 1993);
"Mechanisms of Work Production and Work Absorption in Muscle"
(plenum, 1998). As with these proceedings, this volume contains
records of discussions made not only after each presentation but
also during the periods of General Discussion, in order that
general readers may properly evaluate each presentation and the
up-to-date situation of this research field. It was my great
pleasure to have Dr. Hugh Huxley, a principal discoverer of the
sliding fIlament mechanism in muscle contraction, in this meeting.
On my request, Dr. Huxley kindly gave a special lecture on his
monumental discovery of myofIlament-lattice structure by X-ray
diffraction of living skeletal muscle. I hope general readers to
learn how a breakthrough in a specific research field can be
achieved.
