abstract：:Purkinje cells contain sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) directly under the surface membrane, are devoid of t-tubuli, and are packed with myofibrils surrounded by central SR. Several studies have reported that electrical excitation induces a biphasic Ca(2+) transient in Purkinje fiber bundles. We determined the nature of th...
