Na,K-ATPase, or the Na,K-pump, is essential for the excitability and contractility of muscle tissue. Hypothyroidism in associated with a marked decrease in the Na,K-pump concentration in skeletal muscle and myocardium. In 7 patients on long-term amiodarone treatment there was a 36% reduction in the
The aim of the study was to evaluate the use of freeze-dried and dissected small muscle biopsy specimens ("dry") for the determination of human muscle electrolyte content and ouabain binding capacity, compared with an easier method, without this freezedrying step ("wet"). Freeze-drying and dissectio
