CA2 — SMC2

Text-mined interactions from Literome

Wang et al., Biophys J 2008 : A comparative fit of the model simulations to experimental data predicts 1 ), that airway and arteriole SMC contraction is initiated by fast activation by Ca2+ of MLCK ; 2 ), that airway SMC , but not arteriole SMC, is inhibited by a slower activation by Ca2+ of MLCP ; and 3 ), that the presence of a contractile agonist inhibits MLCP to enhance the Ca2+ sensitivity of airway and arteriole SMCs
Strøbaek et al., Br J Pharmacol 1996 : 2. Stimulation of the human coronary artery SMC ( HCASMC ) with extracellular ATP at concentrations of 0.1-100 microM induced a transient increase in [Ca2+ ] i from a resting level of 49 +/- 21 nM to a maximum of 436 +/- 19 nM
