Funded Activity Summary

Calcium regulation in the skeletal muscle triad and along the fibre. The fundamental role of skeletal muscle is posture and movement. Alterations in the normal way calcium regulates skeletal muscle function in fatigue, age and disease states causes loss of normal function. Preventing or controlling these changes is a key therapeutic aim. However, we currently lack full understanding of key mechanisms of calcium regulation in healthy skeletal muscle. This project will define key aspects of calcium regulation that could be crucial to developing targets for improving function of skeletal muscle under stressed states.
