Metabotropic Ca 2+ channel-induced Ca 2+ release and ATP-dependent facilitation of arterial myocyte contraction

Voltage-gated Ca 2+ channels in arterial myocytes can mediate Ca 2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and, thus, induce contraction without the need of extracellular Ca 2+ influx. This metabotropic action of Ca 2+ channels (denoted as calcium-channel-induced calcium release or CCICR) involves...
