Temperature dependence of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum and sarcolemma in the ventricle of catfish (Clarias gariepinus)

The present study was undertaken to examine the relative contribution of the SR-Ca2+ release and sarcolemmal Ca2+ channels in developing the cardiac force at two different temperatures (20 and 30 °C) in the catfish (Clarias gariepinus). The sarcolemmal Ca2+ contribution of activator Ca2+ was greater...
