Hypothesis-generating for cross-bridge modulation of relaxation; leaves open translation to mammalian or clinical muscle disorders.
BDM increases the speed of relaxation and depresses force in frog skeletal muscle primarily by affecting cross-bridge kinetics rather than intracellular calcium transients.
Sun et al. (2001) studied this question.
