Publisher description
This work addresses the molecular mechanisms by which contraction of heart
and skeletal muscles is regulated, as well as the modulation of these
mechanisms by important (patho)physiological variables such as ionic
composition of the myoplasm and phosphorylations of contractile and regulatory
proteins. For the novice, this volume includes chapters that summarize understanding
of excitation-contraction coupling in striated muscles, as well as the
compositions and structures myofibrillar thick and thin filaments. For the
expert, this volume presents detailed pictures of understanding of the
mechanisms underlying the CA2+ regulation of contraction in heart and skeletal
muscles and discusses important directions for future investigation. This work addresses the molecular mechanisms by which contraction of heart
and skeletal muscles are regulated, as well as the modulation by important
(patho)physiological variables. Topics are approached from different angles to
suit both the novice and the expert.
