Implication

Physiological review highlights the sources and regulatory mechanisms of coupling calcium in mammalian ventricles, suggesting critical determinants of cardiac contractile force.

Key Points

Investigate the cellular sources of coupling calcium and elucidate the physiological factors that regulate its availability during mammalian ventricular contraction.
Synthesized physiological and biochemical evidence on calcium exchange and excitation-contraction coupling in mammalian ventricular myocardium.
Identifies the primary cellular and extracellular pools supplying the coupling calcium required for ventricular myofilament activation.
Outlines the principal regulatory determinants controlling the flux and total quantity of calcium released during myocardial contraction.
