Journal ArticleDOI

Calsequestrin: More than 'only' a luminal Ca2+ buffer inside the sarcoplasmic reticulum

TL;DR: It is shown that, depending on its phosphorylation state, calsequestrin selectively controls the RyR channel activity at 1 mM free luminal [Ca2+], and solely dephosphorylated calsequer regulates Ca2+ release from the SR.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delineation of Myotoxicity Induced by 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA Reductase Inhibitors in Human Skeletal Muscle Cells

TL;DR: It is shown that statins cause apoptosis in differentiated human skeletal muscle cells, delineate the signaling cascade that leads to muscle injury caused by statins and have implications for improving the safety of this important medication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Dantrolene on Steps of Excitation-Contraction Coupling in Mammalian Skeletal Muscle Fibers

TL;DR: Dantrolene was found to suppress the depolarization-induced elevation in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) by inhibiting the release of calcium from the SR by binding on the SR membrane, but be distinct from the purified RYR itself.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface plasmon resonance studies prove the interaction of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+ release channel/ryanodine receptor with calsequestrin

TL;DR: A high affinity molecular interaction is demonstrated between calsequestrin and the sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+ release channel/ryanodine receptor (RyR) by surface plasmon resonance.
