The effect of chlorpromazine (CPZ) on fast twitch muscle of the guinea pig was examined by using the skinned single-fiber preparation. The drug influenced the function of both the contractile system and the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). CPZ made the contractile system more sensitive to calcium ion, shifting the tension-pCa curve to the left, but it did not alter the maximal tension developed at a saturating concentration of Ca. CPZ elicited contracture of the fiber by releasing Ca ion from the SR. Calcium release by CPZ was inhibited either by procaine or magnesium ion and was facilitated when the medium contained more free Ca ion. These observations suggested that Ca release by CPZ was due to the activation of a Ca-induced Ca release mechanism. The effect of CPZ on Ca transport of the SR and its modification by Mg ion was quite equal in the absence of adenosine triphosphate as well as its presence. This indicates that the main site of action of CPZ is in the Ca release mechanism. A CPZ concentration greater than 0.3 mmdamaged the function of the SR irreversibly.
