Real-time imaging of sub-cellular reactive oxygen species, Ca2+ signaling, and excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle under physiological and pathophysiological conditions. The research in ...
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 98, No. 12 (Jun. 5, 2001), pp. 6935-6940 (6 pages) To investigate the molecular basis of the voltage sensor that ...
The ability to modify the intracellular concentrations of divalent calcium ions is vital to normal cell functioning. In the cells of the cardiac muscle, calcium ions play a crucial role in coupling ...
L-type Ca²⁺ currents determine the shape of cardiac action potentials (AP) and the magnitude of the myoplasmic Ca²⁺ signal, which regulates the contraction force. The auxiliary Ca²⁺ channel subunits ...
