The importance of uncoupling troponin I phosphorylation from Ca2+ sensitivity in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy

Heart muscle contraction is regulated via the β adrenergic response that results to phosphorylation of Protein Kinase A (PKA), which in turn decreases the Ca2+ sensitivity of the cardiac myofilament, which is very important for the heart muscle to relax.
