Bovine serum albumin potentiates caffeine- or ATP-induced tension in human skinned skeletal muscle fibers
Human skinned muscle fibers were used to investigate the effects of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on the tension/pCa relationship and on the functional properties of the Ca2+-release channel of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). In both fast- and slow-type fibers, identified by their tension response to...
