Muscle-specific inositide phosphatase (MIP/MTMR14) is reduced with age and its loss accelerates skeletal muscle aging process by altering calcium homeostasis

Figure 4. Altered Ca+2 homeostasis is present in muscle fibers from old Wt and MIPKO mice. Original traces representative of caffeine-induced Fura-2 Ca+2 transients in mature Wt (black trace), old Wt (red trace), and mature MIPKO FDB muscle fibers (blue trace). Examples shown are representative of 6-12 muscle fibers from 3 mice, and data were normalized to the intracellular Ca+2 concentrations in nM.
