Protein kinase regulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum function in isolated adult rat ventricular myocytes

The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is one of the major regulators of the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration in cardiac ventricular muscle cells. In the myocardium, relaxation results from a decrease in cytoplasmic free Ca2+ levels mediated through an efflux of Ca2+ from the cell via the sarcolemmal Na+/Ca...
