Abstract
Porcine skeletal muscle fibers were studied to determine if the defect in malignant hyperthermia involves transverse tubule (TT) to sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) communication. Peeled (mechanically skinned) skeletal muscle fibers from normal and malignant hyperthermia susceptible (MHS) pigs were stimulated with Cl- to ionically depolarize transverse tubules and thereby trigger Ca2+ release from SR. Caffeine was used to directly stimulate the Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release mechanism (CaIR) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Calcium released from internal fiber stores was monitored as Ca2+-activated isomeric force generation in the form of tension transients. Cl- -induced tension transients result from a primary component of Ca2+ release which triggers a secondary CaIR component; CaIR and caffeine contractures were eliminated by procaine. The primary component of Cl- -induced SR Ca2+ release was indistinguishable for MHS and normal skeletal peeled fibers at all TT resting and Cl- stimulation conditions. Only the magnitude of the secondary CaIR component was significantly larger in MHS fibers. The [Ca2+] threshold for secondary CaIR was lowered by resting TT depolarization in both normal and MHS fibers. Conditions for resting TT hyperpolarization selectively reduced the magnitude of the secondary CaIR component of MHS fibers, making them indistinguishable from normal.

Abstract
Bundles of cells, intact from tendon to tendon, were dissected from muscles of normal and malignant hyperthermia susceptible (MHS) pigs. Intact bundles were stimulated either (1) electrically, to elicit twitches and tetani, or (2) ionically with elevated extracellular K+ (K+0), to elicit K-contractures. Maximal tetanic force was the same for MHS and normal intact bundles. In MHS muscles, when responses were elicited from control resting plasmalemma polarization (4 mM K+0), twitches and K-contractures were significantly larger and the K-contracture activation curve was shifted towards lower [K+]0 with respect to normal bundles. Resting hyperpolarization (2 mM K+0) selectively reduced MHS twitch force to normal and K-contracture force toward normal. For K-contracture and twitches, there was a range of K+0 concentrations (7-10 mM), representing resting depolarization, which enhanced subsequent twitch and K-contracture magnitude in both MHS and normal intact bundles as compared to responses elicited from control (4 mM K+0). These results are consistent with the hypothesis that resting plasmalemma voltage sets the gain of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release in MHS and normal intact bundles independent of type of stimulation and suggest that a defect in this mechanism may be responsible for the enhanced twitches and K-contractures of MHS muscles.

Abstract
Calcium release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) has been elicited in response to additions of many different agents. Activators of Ca2+ release are here tentatively classified as activators of a Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release channel preferentially localized in SR terminal or as likely activators of other Ca2+ efflux pathways. Some of these pathways may be associated with several different mechanisms for SR Ca2+ release that have been postulated previously. Studies of various inhibitors of excitation-contraction coupling and of certain forms of SR Ca2+ release are summarized. The sensitivity of isolated SR to certain agents is unusually affected by experimental conditions. These effects can seriously undermine attempts to anticipate effects of the same pharmacological agents in situ. Finally, mention is made of a new preparation ("sarcoballs") designed to make the pharmacological study of SR Ca2+ release more accessible to electrophysiologists, and some concluding speculations on the future of SR pharmacology are offered.

Abstract
Transverse tubule (TT) calcium transport and permeability were examined in the inherited skeletal muscle disorder malignant hyperthermia (MH). ATP-dependent calcium uptake by TT vesicles isolated from normal and MH-susceptible (MHS) pig muscle had a similar dependence on ionized Ca2+ concentration (K1/2 for Ca2+ of 0.21 +/- 0.04 and 0.25 +/- 0.05 microM for MHS and normal TT, respectively), as well as a similar Vmax (20.9 +/- 2.0 and 23.7 +/- 4.5 nmol Ca/mg protein/min for MHS and normal TT, respectively). Furthermore, the stimulation of calcium uptake by either calmodulin or cAMP-dependent protein kinase was similar in normal and MHS TT. Halothane concentrations greater than 2 mM inhibited calcium uptake by either normal or MHS TT to a similar extent (IC50 = 8 mM). Dantrolene (10 microM), nitrendipine (1 microM), and Bay K 8644 (1 microM) had no significant effect on either the initial rates of calcium uptake or maximal calcium accumulation of either MHS or normal TT vesicles. However, in the absence of any added agents, maximum calcium accumulation by MHS TT was significantly less than by normal TT (90 +/- 10 versus 130 +/- 9 nmol Ca/mg protein after 15 min of uptake). This difference was not due to an increased permeability of MHS TT to calcium, nor was it due to a difference in the sarcoplasmic reticulum contamination (less than 5%) of the MHS and normal preparations. Although our results indicate there is no significant defect in MHS TT calcium regulation, the diminished maximum calcium accumulation by MHS TT may contribute to the abnormal sarcoplasmic calcium homeostasis in skeletal muscle during an MH crisis.

Abstract
Earlier reports on malignant hyperthermia warned against the use of local anesthetics in the amide class in persons susceptible to the syndrome. The preponderance of data supports the safety of amide local anesthetics in such patients, and these agents should not be withheld from persons at risk for developing the syndrome.

Abstract
We have investigated the effects of anesthetic and related agents on Ca(2+)-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) in heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle. The purpose of this study is to elucidate their possible role as triggering agents in malignant hyperthermia (MH). None of the agents (ketamine, procaine, lidocaine, succinylcholine, pancuronium and fentanyl) affected CICR at clinical concentrations. At higher concentrations, procaine, pancuronium and succinylcholine inhibited CICR, but ketamine rather potentiated it. It is unlikely that lidocaine is a potent facilitator of CICR at any concentrations. We conclude that procaine, lidocaine, non-depolarizing muscle relaxants and opiate can be used safely for MH susceptible patients and that ketamine and succinylcholine are not recommended.

Abstract
To provide information regarding the cause of the muscle rigidity in malignant hyperthermia-susceptible (MHS) pigs, the Ca-induced Ca-release mechanism of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), the Ca uptake by the SR, and the Ca-activated tension production of the contractile system were examined in skinned skeletal muscle fibers from MHS and normal pigs. In muscles of MHS pigs, the rate of Ca-induced Ca release was significantly higher than in normal muscle. The potentiation effect on Ca-induced Ca release by halothane and caffeine did not differ appreciably between MHS and normal fibers. The rate of Ca uptake by the SR and the Ca sensitivity of the contractile system of MHS fibers were not different from those of normal fibers, and halothane in an anesthetic concentration exerted no effect on them. Dantrolene inhibited the Ca-induced Ca release at 38 degrees C. These results suggest that the principal cause of malignant hyperthermia (MH) in MHS pigs is due to the enhancement of the Ca-induced Ca-release mechanism of the SR of the skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disease in man and animals. It primarily involves skeletal muscle tissue, but other tissues might be affected to a lesser degree. Calcium homeostasis in muscle cells is upset in susceptible individuals, so that various agents and circumstances can increase the free, ionised intracellular calcium concentration to damaging levels. The primary defect is not known at present, but is believed to involve an abnormally sensitive calcium-induced calcium release mechanism. Thus small, localised increases in calcium concentration releases more calcium so that a vicious cycle is triggered. The increased calcium concentration causes multiple effects in the muscles by stimulating contraction and a hypermetabolic state, clinically observed as rigidity and fever. If demands on the homeostatic mechanisms to lower the calcium concentration become exhausted, and metabolism is insufficient to supply enough phosphocreatine and ATP, membrane potentials cannot be maintained, and permeability of the cell membranes increase. This causes loss of phosphate and H+ as well as K+ and Mg++, and later myoglobin and creatine kinase. Thereby oxidative metabolism is further impeded with formation of lactate as a result. The ensuing acidosis stimulates sympathetic innervation, resulting in tachycardia, high blood pressure, and vasoconstriction. Hyperkalemia causes arrhythmia. Dantrolene inhibits the release of calcium and can halt the process if given before depletion of the energy rich phosphates is too advanced.

Abstract
Halothane-induced malignant hyperthermia (MH) is thought to result from a defect in the regulation of cytosolic calcium concentration in MH-susceptible (MHS) skeletal muscle. Such a defect might be expected to alter the time course of contractile responses. To test this hypothesis, isolated intact cell bundles from external intercostal and common digital extensor muscles of normal and MHS pigs were stimulated electrically to elicit twitch and tetanic tension in the presence and absence of halothane (2.5%). Time intervals measured for both twitches and tetani were (1) the latent period between the stimulus and tension increase, (2) the time to peak tension, and (3) the half-relaxation time. In contrast to previous reports, halothane had no effect on any measured time course parameter of twitches of either type of normal or MHS muscle, nor did the twitches of MHS and normal muscles differ in any parameter in the absence of halothane. However, the tetanic tension relaxation in both types of MHS muscle was markedly slowed by halothane, whereas in normal muscles there was little change. The slower rate of relaxation induced by halothane in MHS muscles suggests that halothane, either directly or indirectly, enhances the release or slows the removal of calcium in intact MHS muscles following maximal activation. This slowed tetanus relaxation could be of use in identification of MHS individuals.

Abstract
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a genetic disease in man and other animal species that predisposes to a catastrophic hypermetabolic syndrome that is triggered by certain anesthetic agents. A working hypothesis is that a defect in regulation of muscle cell calcium is the primary mechanism that initiates the MH syndrome. This paper reviews the evidence for a defect in muscle cell calcium as regulated by the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane system. Skeletal muscle biopsied from MH man, pigs and dogs has abnormal in vitro contracture response to halothane and caffeine and these responses can be altered by lowering calcium content of the bathing solution and/or the muscle. Measurements of MH muscle cell Ca2+ by Ca2+-specific microelectrodes in vivo and fura-2 in vitro have demonstrated abnormal Ca2+ levels in resting and in caffeine-stimulated states. The SR membrane system is the primary calcium regulating organelle in skeletal muscle and a likely site for the defect in MH muscle. Two Ca2+ regulating functions of the SR have been explored in SR isolated from MH muscle. An abnormality of the 100K Ca2+-ATPase protein that functions to transport Ca2+ from myoplasm to inside the SR does not appear to be responsible for MH. The most probable defective site in the SR appears to be Ca2+ release channels and a Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release pathway has been shown to be abnormal in SR from MH human and pig muscle.

Abstract
Junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles isolated from back muscles of normal and malignant hyperthermia susceptible (MHS) pigs were phosphorylated by addition of MgATP in the presence of 5 mM Ca2+ and 1 microM calmodulin (CaM). The major site of phosphorylation was a 60 kDa protein both in normal and MHS SR. The maximal amount of phosphorylation in MHS SR (5 pmol P/mg SR) was significantly lower than that in the normal SR (12 pmol P/mg SR). The phosphorylated 60 kDa protein was spontaneously dephosphorylated both in normal and MHS SR. Ca2+ release from the passively loaded SR was induced by a Ca2+-jump, and monitored by stopped-flow fluorometry using chlorotetracycline. In the absence of preincubation with MgATP, no significant difference was found in any of the kinetic parameters of Ca2+ release between normal and MHS SR. Upon addition of 20 microM MgATP to the passively loaded SR to phosphorylate the 60 kDa protein, the initial rate of Ca2+ release in normal SR significantly decreased from 659 +/- 102 to 361 +/- 105 nmol Ca2+/mg SR per s, whereas in MHS SR the rate decreased from 749 +/- 124 to 652 +/- 179 nmol Ca2+/mg SR per s. Addition of 20 microM adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-imido]triphosphate (p[NH]ppA) did not significantly alter the initial rate of Ca2+ release both in normal and MHS SR. These results suggest that the previously reported higher Ca2+ release rate in MHS SR (Kim et al. (1984) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 775, 320-327) is at least partly due to the reduced extent of the Ca2+/CaM-dependent phosphorylation of the 60 kDa protein. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis study showed that amount of a protein with Mr = 55,000 was significantly lower in MHS SR than in normal SR suggesting that the abnormally lower amount of 55 kDa protein would cause the lower amount of phosphorylation of the 60 kDa protein in MHS SR.

Abstract
We have investigated in malignant hyperthermia susceptible swine in vivo the effects on halothane initiation of the MH syndrome and on the established syndrome of five calcium channel blocking drugs--nifedipine, nisoldipine, diltiazem, verapamil and flunarazine. Nifedipine alone caused attenuation of halothane-initiated malignant hyperthermia to the extent of blocking onset of the syndrome in 29% of animals for the 60 minute period of exposure. In the face of the established malignant hyperthermia syndrome, all the drugs tested were therapeutically completely ineffective.

Abstract
The content and distribution of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the skeletal muscle disorder malignant hyperthermia (MH) was examined. The AChE activity of sarcolemma membranes isolated from MH-susceptible (MHS) swine was increased twofold when compared with normal sarcolemma. The total AChE activity of muscle extracts was also doubled in MHS tissue; however, the relative distribution between low-salt extractable (globular forms) and high-salt extractable (asymmetric forms) AChE activities were similar in MHS and normal muscle. Our results suggest that, for as yet unexplained reasons, both the sarcolemmal and total AChE activity of skeletal muscle is increased in porcine MH.

Abstract
Trapezius muscle from normal and malignant hyperthermia (MH) pigs was used to investigate the effects of halothane on contractile properties and on the calcium transport system of isolated surface membranes. We observed that (i) halothane, diluted in dimethyl sulfoxide, induced a higher isometric contracture response in MH muscle than in normal muscle, (ii) halothane had a more pronounced inhibitory effect on the sarcolemmal Ca2+-ATPase activity in MH membrane, and (iii) the actively accumulated calcium was released in higher amounts in MH muscle than in normal muscle. These results suggest that halothane might induce, in vivo, an important influx of extracellular calcium ions through the MH sarcolemmal membranes and this pool of intracellular calcium may constitute the trigger for the defective sarcoplasmic reticulum "calcium-induced calcium-release" system.

Abstract
Sarcolemmal properties implicated in the skeletal muscle disorder, malignant hyperthermia (MH), were examined using sarcolemma-membrane vesicles isolated from normal and MH-susceptible (MHS) porcine skeletal muscle. MHS and normal sarcolemma did not differ in the distribution of the major proteins, cholesterol or phospholipid content, vesicle size and sidedness, (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, ouabain binding, or adenylate cyclase activity (total and isoproterenol sensitivity). The regulation of the initial rates of MHS and normal sarcolemmal ATP-dependent calcium transport (calcium uptake after 1 min) by Ca2+ (K1/2 = 0.64-0.81 microM), calmodulin, and cAMP-dependent protein kinase were similar. However, when sarcolemmal calcium content was measured at either 2 or 20 min after the initiation of active calcium transport, a significant difference between MHS and normal sarcolemmal calcium uptake became apparent, with MHS sarcolemma accumulating approximately 25% less calcium than normal sarcolemma. Calcium transport by MHS and normal sarcolemma, at 2 or 20 min, had a similar calmodulin dependence (C1/2 = 150 nM), and was stimulated to a similar extent by cAMP-dependent protein kinase or calmodulin. Halothane inhibited MHS and normal sarcolemmal active calcium uptake in a similar fashion (half-maximal inhibition at 10 mM halothane), while dantrolene (30 microM) and nitrendipine (1 microM) had little effect on either MHS or normal sarcolemmal calcium transport. After 20 min of ATP-supported calcium uptake, 2 mM EGTA plus 10 microM sodium orthovanadate were added to initiate sarcolemmal calcium efflux. Following an initial rapid phase of calcium release, an extended slow phase of calcium efflux (k = 0.012 min-1) was similar for both MHS and normal sarcolemma vesicles. We conclude that although a number of sarcolemmal properties, including passive calcium permeability, are normal in MH, a small but significant defect in MHS sarcolemmal ATP-dependent calcium transport may contribute to the abnormal calcium homeostasis and altered contractile properties of MHS skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Preparing skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum from both normal and malignant hyperthermia susceptible pigs, the effects of various drugs on the passive calcium permeability of these sarcoplasmic reticulum preparations were studied. It was found that, in the absence of halothane, the permeability of heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum prepared from malignant hyperthermia susceptible pigs was much higher than that of normal pigs. It was observed that halothane, at concentrations above 10 microM (well below anesthetic concentrations, which are on the order of 1 mM), increased the permeability of sarcoplasmic reticulum. The Hill coefficient of the effect of halothane ranged from 1.96 to 2.25, suggesting that some kind of cooperativity was involved in this reaction. The effects of caffeine were similar to those of halothane. Inhibitors, such as tetracaine and ruthenium red inhibited both the calcium permeability and the halothane-induced increment. The Hill coefficient of the effect of tetracaine was 1.75. The mode of inhibition suggests that tetracaine directly binds with the calcium channel to inhibit the calcium efflux. On the contrary, dantrolene did not affect the calcium permeability of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. However, it inhibited the halothane-induced and caffeine-induced increments of the permeability. The Hill coefficient of inhibition by dantrolene ranged from 2.3 to 3.9, suggesting that several molecules of dantrolene may interact cooperatively with one calcium release channel to inhibit the effect of halothane. These results suggest that dantrolene has a unique inhibitory action, which may be related to its efficacy in ameliorating the syndrome of malignant hyperthermia.

Abstract
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a hereditary myopathy, triggered when susceptible patients are exposed to a depolarizing muscle relaxant and/or potent volatile anesthetics. We have studied the effects of dantrolene on the free [Ca2+]i of intercostal muscle biopsies obtained from two MH-susceptible patients before and after administration of dantrolene orally (2.5 mg/kg for 3 days) and intravenously (1.0 mg/kg 2 hours before the biopsy). The free [Ca2+]i was measured by Ca2+-selective microelectrodes. The mean resting free [Ca2+]i in the MH-susceptible muscle before dantrolene treatment was 0.42 +/- 0.01 microM (mean +/- SEM, n = 12). The administration of dantrolene reduced this value to 0.27 +/- 0.01 microM (n = 14). There was no detectable difference in the resting membrane potential after dantrolene. These results represent the first direct demonstration that dantrolene is able to reduce the resting free [Ca2+]i in skeletal muscle of MH-susceptible patients.

Abstract
To further define the possible involvement of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium accumulation and release in the skeletal muscle disorder malignant hyperthermia (MH), we have examined various properties of sarcoplasmic reticulum fractions isolated from normal and MH-susceptible pig muscle. A sarcoplasmic reticulum preparation enriched in vesicles derived from the terminal cisternae, was further fractionated on discontinuous sucrose density gradients (Meissner, G. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 2365-2374). The resultant MH-susceptible and normal sarcoplasmic reticulum fractions, designated F0-F4, did not differ in yield, cholesterol and phospholipid content, or nitrendipine binding capacity. Calcium accumulation (0.27 mumol Ca/mg per min at 22 degrees C), Ca2+-ATPase activity (0.98 mumol Pi/mg per min at 22 degrees C), and calsequestrin content were also similar for MH-susceptible and normal sarcoplasmic reticulum fraction F3. To examine sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release, fraction F3 vesicles were passively loaded with 45Ca (approx. 40 nmol Ca/mg), and rapidly diluted into a medium of defined Ca2+ concentration. Upon dilution into 1 microM Ca2+, the extent of Ca2+-dependent calcium release measured after 5 s was significantly greater for MH-susceptible than for normal sarcoplasmic reticulum, 65.9 +/- 2.8% vs. 47.7 +/- 3.9% of the loaded calcium, respectively. The C1/2 for Ca2+ stimulation of this calcium release (5 s value) from MH-susceptible sarcoplasmic reticulum also appeared to be shifted towards a higher Ca2+-sensitivity when compared to normal sarcoplasmic reticulum. Dantrolene had no effect on calcium release from fraction F3, however, halothane (0.1-0.5 mM) increased the extent of calcium release (5 s) similarly in both MH-susceptible and normal sarcoplasmic reticulum. Furthermore, Mg2+ was less effective at inhibiting, while ATP and caffeine were more effective in stimulating, this Ca2+-dependent release of calcium from MH-susceptible, when compared to normal sarcoplasmic reticulum. Our results demonstrate that while sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-accumulation appears unaffected in MH, aspect(s) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-induced calcium release mechanism are altered. Although the role of the Ca2+-induced calcium release mechanism of sarcoplasmic reticulum in situ is not yet clear, our results suggest that an abnormality in the regulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release may play an important role in the MH syndrome.

Abstract
The role of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in malignant hyperthermia (MH) was studied using the heavy microsomal fraction prepared from semitendinosus muscles of both normal and genetically MH-susceptible pigs. In the presence of ATP, SR was loaded with 70 nmol Ca2+/mg SR protein. Under these conditions, MH-SR demonstrated Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (Ca-ICaR) and halothane-induced Ca2+ release (halothane-ICaR; halothane concentrations as low as 10 microM). Normal SR did not demonstrate these release phenomena. Dantrolene inhibited the halothane-ICaR, but did not inhibit the Ca-ICaR. Ruthenium red and tetracaine inhibited both types of Ca2+ release. From the measurement of passive Ca2+ efflux, it was shown that dantrolene did not affect the Ca2+ permeability of the SR itself, but suppressed only the halothane-induced increment of the permeability. The membrane order parameter of the SR, as measured by the spin-probe EPR technique, indicated that halothane disordered the lipid bilayer of MH-SR to a greater extent than it did of normal SR. This halothane disordering effect on MH-SR was antagonized by dantrolene. Ruthenium red and tetracaine did not antagonize the halothane disordering effect. These results raise the possibility that halothane could disturb the structure of the lipoprotein complex in MH-SR in such a way that it could open the Ca2+-release channels. The Ca2+ thus released further opens the channel through the Ca-ICaR mechanism in a positive feedback fashion, thus triggering the MH syndrome. The efficacy of dantrolene in ameliorating the MH syndrome might be related to the inhibition of this halothane effect.

Abstract
The effects of dantrolene, which is a known muscle relaxant, on Ca2+ release from the isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum induced by several different methods [1) addition of caffeine, (2) Ca2+ jump, and (3) membrane-depolarization produced by choline chloride replacement of potassium gluconate) were investigated. Dantrolene inhibited caffeine-induced Ca2+ release with C1/2 = 2.5 microM, whereas there was no effect on Ca2+ release induced by a Ca2+ jump. The amount of Ca2+ released by depolarization was reduced if Ca2+ release was triggered in an earlier phase of the steady state of Ca2+ uptake (time elapsed between the addition of ATP and the triggering of Ca2+ release, tATP less than 4 min); while, if triggered in a latter phase (tATP greater than 4 min) dantrolene enhanced depolarization-induced Ca2+ release. C1/2 for the inhibition and that for enhancement of depolarization-induced Ca2+ release were 1.0 and 0.3 microM, respectively. These results suggest that dantrolene affects several different steps of the mechanism by which Ca2+ release is triggered. The sarcoplasmic reticulum and T-tubule membrane fractions had 7.9 nmol dantrolene-binding sites/mg (Kassoc = 1.0 X 10(5) M-1) and 21.0 nmol/mg (Kassoc = 1.1 X 10(5) M-1), respectively. The time-course of dantrolene binding to sarcoplasmic reticulum was monophasic, while that to T-tubules was biphasic.

Abstract
The effects of Ruthenium red and tetracaine, which inhibit Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release from the isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum (e.g., Ohnishi, S.T. (1979) J. Biochem. (Tokyo) 86, 1147-1150), on several types of Ca2+ release in vitro were investigated. Ca2+ release was triggered by several methods: (1) addition of quercetin or caffeine, (2) Ca2+ jump, and (3) replacement of potassium gluconate with choline chloride to produce membrane depolarization. The time-course of Ca2+ release was monitored using stopped-flow spectrophotometry and arsenazo III as a Ca2+ indicator. Ruthenium red inhibited all of these types of Ca2+ release with the same concentration for half-inhibition C1/2 = 0.08-0.10 microM. Similarly, tetracaine inhibited these types of Ca2+ release with C1/2 = 0.07-0.11 mM. Procaine also inhibits both types of Ca2+ release induced by method 2 and 3 with C1/2 = 0.67-1.00 mM. These results suggest that Ruthenium red, tetracaine and procaine interfere with a common mechanism of the different types of Ca2+ release. On the basis of several pieces of evidence we propose that Ruthenium red and tetracaine block the Ca2+ channel of sarcoplasmic reticulum.
