Comparison of the Melatonin and Calmodulin in Paravertebral Muscle and Platelets of Patients With or Without Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Abstract

AIS group had an asymmetric distribution of calmodulin in paraspinal muscle, higher at the convex side and lower at the concave. Neither platelet melatonin nor platelet calmodulin was found to be representative of the muscle protein values.
