Inhibition of sarcoplasmic Ca(2+)-ATPase increases caffeine- and halothane-induced contractures in muscle bundles of malignant hyperthermia susceptible and healthy individuals

BACKGROUND: Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is triggered by halogenated anaesthetics and depolarising muscle relaxants, leading to an uncontrolled hypermetabolic state of skeletal muscle. An uncontrolled sarcoplasmic Ca(2+ )release is mediated via the ryanodine receptor. A compensatory mechanism of incr...
