Preclinical avian smooth muscle data; hypothesis-generating for magnesium-myosin regulation but leaves open mammalian cardiovascular relevance.
High concentrations of magnesium are required for the formation of thick filaments, which in turn is necessary for the superprecipitation of chicken gizzard acto-myosin.
Suzuki et al. (1981) studied this question.
