Effects of Cyclopiazonic Acid, an Inhibitor of the Ca++ Atpase of Sarcoplasmic Reticulum, on Ca++ Transport, Contraction and Relaxation in Cardiac Muscle

  • Chapter
Excitation-Contraction Coupling in Skeletal, Cardiac, and Smooth Muscle

Summary

Cyclopiazonic acid is a potent inhibitor of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca++ ATPase. It scarcely affects inotropism but significantly impairs lusitropism suggesting a greater role for cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum in the control of cardiac relaxation than in the control of cardiac contraction.
