Alerts to high energetic cost of MRLC cycling in arterial smooth muscle; leaves open translation to human vascular energetics.
The energetic cost of cross-bridge phosphorylation-dephosphorylation kinetics can rival that of cross-bridge cycling during isometric contractions in swine arterial smooth muscle.
Wingard et al. (1997) studied this question.
