Two-fold increase in Ca2+-transport properties of Ca2+-pump was detected in myocardial sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) during adaptation of animals to muscular activity (training by means of running on treadmill within 6 weeks, with gradual increase in duration and intensity). Besides, the rate of SR membranes phosphorylation via cAMP-dependent protein kinase was increased 1.3-fold.

It is shown that under such an antioxidant deficiency ATP-dependent accumulation of calcium is 2.5 times as low, from 490 down to 190 nmol/mg of protein for 5 min.
