Synopsis of recent research by authors named "A P Kallikorm"
- A P Kallikorm's research primarily focuses on the impacts of thyroid hormone levels on cardiac physiology, particularly examining the effects of hypo- and hyperthyroidism on ion transport processes and energy production in rat hearts.
- Key findings indicate that hyperthyroidism increases sarcoplasmic reticular calcium accumulation and alters the contraction frequency-response relationship, potentially affecting myocardial contractility.
- Kallikorm has also investigated the synthesis of phosphocreatine in hyperthyroid rats, suggesting metabolic disruptions related to oxidative phosphorylation and energy-related disorders in cardiac tissue under calcium overload conditions.
