A pivotal role for cADPR-mediated Ca2+ signaling: regulation of endothelin-induced contraction in peritubular smooth muscle cells.

A pivotal role for cADPR-mediated Ca2+ signaling: regulation of endothelin-induced contraction in peritubular smooth muscle cells.

cADPR, a potent calcium-mobilizing intracellular messenger synthesized by ADP-ribosyl cyclases regulates openings of ryanodine receptors (RyR). Here we report that in the rat testis, a functional cADPR Ca2+ release system is essential for the contractile response of peritubular smooth muscle cells (...
