Example sentences for: sarcoplasmic
How can you use “sarcoplasmic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
MHC = myosin heavy chain; RT-PCR = reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction; SDH = succinate dehydrogenase; SERCA = sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca 2+-ATPase.
Because mechanical indices of relaxation reflect the function of SERCA in sequestering calcium in the sarcoplasmic reticulum [ 49 ] , we measured half relaxation times on our diaphragmatic strips.
Muscle contractions are initiated under the influence of the motor nerve by release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, which triggers actin–myosin crossbridge cycling (Figure 3).
In the latter process, the movement of electrical charges in the α 1S subunit promotes a conformational change that opens the ryanodine receptor type-1 (RyR1) in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane (SR) leading to an increase in cytosolic Ca 2+[ 2, 3].
To evaluate whether shifts toward more energy-efficient isoforms of the second most important ATPase in muscle might also occur in emphysematous diaphragm, we also studied changes in sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca 2+-ATPase (SERCA) expression.
