Abstract excerpt
The effect of peptides, corresponding to sequences in the skeletal muscle dihydropyridine receptor II-III loop, on Ca(2+) release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) and on ryanodine receptor (RyR) calcium release channels have been compared in preparations from normal and malignant hyperthermia (MH)-susceptible pigs. Peptide A (Thr(671)-Leu(690); 36 microM) enhanced the rate of Ca(2+) release from normal SR (SR(N))...
