May explain postischemic dysfunction in this model; leaves open relevance to human stunning or therapy.
Myocardial stunning is associated with damage to the calcium-transport system of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, which may contribute to postischemic mechanical depression.
Krause et al. (1989) studied this question.
