    Calcium Release Mechanism
    Upon action potential propagation along the sarcolemma and subsequent T-tubule depolarization, voltage sensors (Dihydropyridine Receptors, $\text{DHPR}$) undergo a conformational change. In skeletal muscle, this mechanical coupling directly gates the $\text{RyR}$ on the terminal cisternae, leading to massive $\text{Ca}^{2+}$ efflux. In cardiac muscle, the $\text{DHPR}$ acts primarily as a $\text{Ca}^{2+…
