Junctophilin Damage Contributes to Early Force Deficits and Excitation-Contraction Coupling Failure after Performing Eccentric Contractions
Junctophilins (JP1 & JP2) are expressed in skeletal muscle and are the primary proteins involved in transverse (T)-tubule and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane apposition. During the performance of eccentric contractions, the apposition of T-tubule and SR membranes may be disrupted, resulting...
