Regenerative Calcium Release within Muscle Cells

Lincoln E. Ford 1 and Richard J. Podolsky 1

1 Laboratory of Physical Biology, National Institute of Arthritis and Metabolic Diseases, Bethesda, Maryland 20014

Free calcium appears to trigger the release of stored calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skinned skeletal muscle fibers immersed in solutions with a low concentration of magnesium ion.
