Loss of T‐type calcium channel (TCC) function has been reported to result in decreased cell viability and impaired muscle regeneration. In this study, we report a novel mechanism whereby TCC blockade promotes ERS and contributes to Ca 2+ homeostasis disorder of endoplasmic reticulum, thereby resulting in mitochondrial‐related apoptotic cell death in C2C12 myotubes and skeletal muscle.
