Key result
Spontaneous sporadic releases of stored calcium (sparks) play key roles in smooth muscle physiology, including modulating ion channels, affecting contraction, and contributing to pacemaker potentials.
Spontaneous calcium releases (sparks) play a fundamental role in smooth muscle physiology, regulating contraction, blood pressure, and rhythmical motility.
