Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a potentially fatal hypermetabolic reaction to general anaesthesia arising from skeletal muscle calcium dysregulation. Previous studies of resting cells support an association between MH susceptibility, mitochondrial dysfunction, and defects in fatty acid metabolism, which are understood to be downstream consequences of calcium dysregulation. We hypothesised that in...
