Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
TL;DR: The inhibitors of Ca-induced Ca release––procaine and adenine––were shown not to inhibit contraction of living skeletal muscle fibers induced by the depolarization of the surface membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium induced release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skinned skeletal muscle fibres.
TL;DR: The repeated contractions which can be observed in skinned fibres in appropriate concentrations of caffeine, Ca2+ and chelating agent suggest that calcium release is a regenerative process in which calcium itself causes the release of calcium from the reticulum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation reaction and its relationship to calcium transport in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.
TL;DR: The existence of a functional relationship between cardiac microsomal phosphorylation and an increased rate of calcium transport is suggested, and protein kinases prepared from both bovine cardiac or rabbit fast skeletal muscle catalyzed the formation of microSomal phosphoprotein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical relaxation rate and metabolism studied in fatiguing muscle by phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance
TL;DR: It is suggested that 1/tau may depend upon the free‐energy change for ATP hydrolysis which in turn may be related to the rate of Ca2+ uptake into the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
