Sodium-calcium exchange in intracellular calcium handling of human airway smooth muscle.

Sodium-calcium exchange in intracellular calcium handling of human airway smooth muscle.

Enhanced airway contractility following inflammation by cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) or interleukin-13 (IL-13) involves increased intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) levels in airway smooth muscle (ASM). In ASM, plasma membrane Ca(2+) fluxes form a key component of [Ca(2+)](i)...
