Research Abstract |
Proliferative smooth muscle cells predominantly express intermediate-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (IKca) channels.This phenotypic shift in the Kca channel expression pattern gives rise to dramatic alterations in the electrical properties of the cell, which have functional consequences, inpart because of the effect on Ca2+ influx. IKca channel activation contributes to Ca2+ entry in smooth muscle cells andtherefore affect migration and proliferation in some pathophysiologic conditions.
