Abstract
A role of internal calcium was found in the inward current response of single, dispersed, smooth muscle cells to muscarinic receptor activation but no obligatory role for guanine nucleotide binding proteins, in contrast to their obligatory role in muscarinic responses in heart and other tissues.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
