The Effect of Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) on the Cytosolic Calcium Concentration and Force in Rat Intramural Coronary Arteries
The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of CGRP-induced relaxation in intramural rat coronary arteries. By using FURA-2 technique, cytosolic Ca2+-concentration ([Ca2+]i) was measured during contraction of the vascular smooth muscle with receptor-dependent agonist (tromboxane A2 analog...
