The anti-atherosclerotic di-peptide, Trp-His, inhibits the phosphorylation of voltage-dependent L-type Ca(2+) channels in rat vascular smooth muscle cells

Trp-His is the only vasoactive di-peptide known to regulate intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) and prevent the onset of atherosclerosis in mice. In this study, we showed that Trp-His reduced the [Ca(2+)](i) elevation in phospholipase C-activated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), while a mixture...
