Enhanced contractility and myosin phosphorylation induced by Ca2+-independent MLCK activity in hypertensive rats

Aims The role of Ca2+ sensitization induced by a Ca2+-independent myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) in hypertension has not been determined. The aim of this study was to clarify the role of possible Ca2+-independent MLCK activity in hypertension. Methods and results We compared increases in contracti...
