Differentiation of sarcoplasmic reticulum during cardiac myogenesis
The composition and function of fetal and mature sheep cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes were investigated. Phospholamban, a major phosphoprotein in the mature sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes, was present in early stages of cardiac myogenesis ...

Functional effects of mutations in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor type 1 (RYR1) linked to malignant hyperthermia and central core disease [PDF]
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance. In susceptible individuals, a MH crisis may be triggered by commonly used halogenated anaesthetics (halothane, isoflurane) or muscle relaxants ...

Objective To observe the effects of manual acupuncture(MA) and electroacupuncture(EA) on Ca2+ content and Ca2+-ATPase activity in sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle cells in rats of acute swimming exercise(ASE) so as to reveal its underlying ...

Organelle Optogenetics: Direct Manipulation of Intracellular Ca2+ Dynamics by Light
As one of the ubiquitous second messengers, the intracellular Ca2+, has been revealed to be a pivotal regulator of various cellular functions. Two major sources are involved in the initiation of Ca2+-dependent signals: influx from the extracellular space

The Ultrastructure of Developing Sarcoplasmic Reticulum
Developmental changes in the sarcoplasmic reticulum and surface membranes of chicken skeletal muscles were investigated by electron microscopy. A dominant feature of freeze-etched sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes isolated from adult animals is the presence of spherical intramembranous particles of 75 A apparent diameter which are more numerous on the ...

An investigation of NAADP-dependent Ca²⁺ signalling mechanisms in arterial smooth muscle [PDF]
Previous investigations on pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells have shown that nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide diphosphate (NAADP) evokes highly localised intracellular Ca²⁺ bursts by mobilising thapsigargin-insensitive Ca²⁺ stores.

Cardiac electrical dynamics are governed by cellular-level properties, such as action potential duration (APD) restitution and intracellular calcium (Ca) handling, and tissue-level properties, including conduction velocity restitution and cell–cell ...

Calcium sparks in arterial smooth muscle cells regulate vascular tone
It is named Ca2+ sparks a local, rapid and transient Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) by the opening of ryanodine-sensitive (RyR) channels. RyR channels localized in SR are found in all muscle cell types (cardiac, skeletal, smooth) and many

Impact of an electric field on P-type ATPases [PDF]
P-type ATPases are membrane proteins acting as ion pumps that drive an active transport of cations across the membrane against a concentration gradient. The required energy for the ion transport is provided by binding and hydrolysis of ATP.
