In studies of ischemia and reperfusion, a major experimental problem has been the inability to measure intracellular ionized… (More)

In rat aortic strips, muscle contraction was recorded simultaneously with cytosolic Ca++ level, which was indicated by the 500 nm… (More)

The mechanism that links membrane potential changes to the release of calcium from internal stores to cause contraction of… (More)

A model of calcium movement during activation of frog skeletal muscle is described. The model was based on the half sarcomere of… (More)
