Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Anesthetic-induced malignant hyperthermia (MH) in humans and pigs is associated with dramatic alterations in cardiac function. However, it remains controversial as to whether MH-associated cardiac symptoms represent a primary difference of myocardium or a secondary alteration consequent to increases in the hyperthermic stress. Here the authors describe changes in myosin isoform expression in the...
