Antibody effects on Ca2+ handling are hypothesis-generating in animal models; leaves open relevance to human cardiac disease.
Phosphorylation of phospholamban is crucial for Ca2+ sequestration by the sarcoplasmic reticulum and mediates the catecholamine-enhanced rate of Ca2+ uptake and release in heart muscle.
Sham et al. (1991) studied this question.
