Functional effects of protein kinase C-mediated myofilament phosphorylation in human myocardium.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To test the hypothesis that prolonged physical exercise induces long-lasting effects on blood pressure and heart rate we studied 17 endurance runners before and after the 1995 Sandia Wilderness Crossing Research Run (46 km of rocky trails, average altitude 2500 m). METHODS:We evaluated the response of the ca...
