Abstract excerpt
Ryanodine receptor (RYR) mutations confer stress-triggered malignant hyperthermia (MH) susceptibility. Dietary caffeine (CAF) is the most commonly consumed psychoactive compound by humans. CAF-triggered Ca2+ release and its influences on skeletal muscle contractility are widely used as experimental tools to study RYR function/dysfunction and diagnose MH susceptibility. We hypothesize that dietary CAF achieving...
