Mechanisms of asynchronous Ca²⁺ oscillations and their role in (mal)function of vascular smooth muscle
Contraction of vascular smooth muscle is regulated by fluctuations in the cytosolic concentration of Ca²⁺. The spatio-temporal regulation of Ca²⁺ relies on the subcellular architecture of the smooth muscle cell and the juxtaposition of the opposing plasmalemma, sarcoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondr...
