A Close Association of RyRs with Highly Dense Clusters of Ca(2+)-activated Cl(−) Channels Underlies the Activation of STICs by Ca(2+) Sparks in Mouse Airway Smooth Muscle

Ca(2+) sparks are highly localized, transient releases of Ca(2+) from sarcoplasmic reticulum through ryanodine receptors (RyRs). In smooth muscle, Ca(2+) sparks trigger spontaneous transient outward currents (STOCs) by opening nearby clusters of large-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels, and...
