Functional tuning of Vascular L-type Ca2+ channels

Vascular smooth muscle contraction is intimately tied to membrane potential and the rise in intracellular Ca2+ enabled by the opening of L-type Ca2+ channels. While voltage is often viewed as the single critical factor gating these channels, research is starting to reveal a more intricate scenario w...
