Mechanical stimuli augment Ca2+ wave generation in arterial smooth muscle, facilitating tone development at lower intravascular pressures.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Does not support clinical translation; leaves open whether pressure-dependent Ca2+ waves mediate myogenic tone in humans.
Mufti et al. (2010) studied this question.
