Regulation of myocardial contraction as revealed by intracellular Ca2+ measurements using aequorin

Abstract Of the ions involved in myocardial function, Ca2+ is the most important. Ca2+ is crucial to the process that allows myocardium to repeatedly contract and relax in a well-organized fashion; it is the process called excitation–contraction coupling. In order, therefore, for accurate comprehens...
