Does not support clinical translation; hypothesis-generating for calcium-dependent AII signaling in vascular cells.
In rat vascular smooth muscle cells, angiotensin II-induced prostaglandin release depends on both intracellular and extracellular calcium via L-type channels, while DNA synthesis requires extracellular calcium independent of L-type channels.
Catalioto et al. (1996) studied this question.
