Different Effects of Hypertension and Age on the Function of Large Conductance Calcium‐ and Voltage‐Activated Potassium Channels in Human Mesentery Artery Smooth Muscle Cells

Different Effects of Hypertension and Age on the Function of Large Conductance Calcium‐ and Voltage‐Activated Potassium Channels in Human Mesentery Artery Smooth Muscle Cells

Background Large‐conductance calcium‐ and voltage‐activated potassium channels (BKCa channels) play important roles in the maintenance of vascular tone, and their dysregulation is associated with abnormal vascular relaxation and contraction. We tested the changes in BKCa channel properties in patien...
