متن کاملMyogenic contraction in rat skeletal muscle arterioles: smooth muscle membrane potential and Ca(2+) signaling.
The present studies examined relationships between intraluminal pressure, membrane potential (E(m)), and myogenic tone in skeletal muscle arterioles. Using pharmacological interventions targeting Ca(2+) entry/release mechanisms, these studies also determined the role of Ca(2+) pathways and E(m) in determining steady-state myogenic constriction. Studies were conducted in isolated and cannulated ...
متن کاملCa-induced contraction of cat esophageal circular smooth muscle cells
Cao, W., Q. Chen, U. D. Sohn, N. Kim, M. T. Kirber, K. M. Harnett, J. Behar, and P. Biancani. Ca-induced contraction of cat esophageal circular smooth muscle cells. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 280: C980–C992, 2001.— ACh-induced contraction of esophageal circular muscle (ESO) depends on Ca influx and activation of protein kinase Ce (PKCe). PKCe, however, is known to be Ca independent. To determine...
متن کاملZipper-interacting protein kinase induces Ca(2+)-free smooth muscle contraction via myosin light chain phosphorylation.
The inhibition of myosin phosphatase evokes smooth muscle contraction in the absence of Ca(2+), yet the underlying mechanisms are not understood. To this end, we have cloned smooth muscle zipper-interacting protein (ZIP) kinase cDNA. ZIP kinase is present in various smooth muscle tissues including arteries. Triton X-100 skinning did not diminish ZIP kinase content, suggesting that ZIP kinase as...
