Functional insights into modulation of BK(Ca) channel activity to alter myometrial contractility
The large-conductance voltage- and Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel (BK(Ca)) is an important regulator of membrane excitability in a wide variety of cells and tissues. In myometrial smooth muscle, activation of BK(Ca) plays essential roles in buffering contractility to maintain uterine quiescence durin...
