Ca2+-Releasing Effect of Cerivastatin on the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum of Mouse and Rat Skeletal Muscle Fibers
ABSTRACT: We analyzed the effect of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors on Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) using chemically skinned skeletal muscle fibers from the mouse and the rat. Cerivastatin (>20 μM) released Ca2+ from the SR, while pravastatin showed only a little effect. The rat...
