Does not yet alter clinical management of vascular tone; extends basic understanding of calcium current heterogeneity in smooth muscle.
Demonstrates the presence of two distinct calcium currents (fast and slow) in rat portal vein smooth muscle cells with differing sensitivities to isradipine and voltage dependence.
Loirand et al. (1989) studied this question.
