Flow-dependent nucleotide effects on endothelial calcium are hypothesis-generating; should not change practice pending in vivo confirmation.
Hemodynamic flow combined with adenine nucleotides significantly increases cytosolic calcium in vascular endothelial cells, suggesting a role for convective-diffusive transport of ATP in regulating blood flow.
Mo et al. (1991) studied this question.
