The effect of high [K(+)](o) on spontaneous Ca(2+) waves in freshly isolated interstitial cells of Cajal from the rabbit urethra

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) act as putative pacemaker cells in the rabbit urethra. Pacemaker activity in ICC results from spontaneous global Ca(2+) waves that can be increased in frequency by raising external [K(+)]. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the mechanism of this response. In...
