Changes in force and calcium sensitivity in the developing avian heart.
In skinned trabeculae, the calcium sensitivity of the contractile apparatus was higher in the embryo than in the young adult, and age-dependent changes in calcium sensitivity are correlated with isoform switching in troponin T.

The data provided herein, suggest that the brown spider venom phospholipase‐D‐induced hemolysis of human erythrocytes is dependent on the metabolism of membrane phospholIPids, such as SM and LPC, generating bioactive products that stimulate a calcium influx into red blood cells mediated by the L‐type channel.

The data indicate that, even in the best of salts, destabilization of the actomyosin complex may play a role in the effect of high ionic strength on the contractile process.

Effect of cardiac neural crest ablation on contractile force and calcium uptake and release in chick heart.

- BiologyAmerican Journal of Physiology
- 1 September 1997
Cardiac neural crest ablation in the chick embryo at stages 8-10 results in reduced contractility of the heart that can be observed as early as stage 14, and effects on Ca2+ metabolism explain, in part, the decrease in the intracellular Ca 2+ transient and myocardial contractility observed with CNCA.

The effect of 2,3-butanedione 2-monoxime (BDM) on ventricular trabeculae from the avian heart

- BiologyJournal of Muscle Research and Cell Motility
- 1 February 1995
2,3-butanedione 2-monoxime (BDM, 3–30 mm) decreased twitch force of intact ventricular trabeculae isolated from 19-day embryonic chick hearts in a dose-dependent manner and was ascribed predominantly to depression of the contractile apparatus while, at higher concentrations of BDM, there is an additional inhibitory effect of B DM on excitation-contraction coupling.
