Dynamic Changes in Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Structure in Ventricular Myocytes
The fidelity of excitation-contraction (EC) coupling in ventricular myocytes is remarkable, with each action potential evoking a [Ca2+]𝑖 transient. The prevalent model is that the consistency in EC coupling in ventricular myocytes is due to the formation of fixed, tight junctions between the sarcopl...
