Intercellular communication controls agonist-induced calcium oscillations independently of gap junctions in smooth muscle cells

In this study, we report the existence of a communication system among human smooth muscle cells that uses mechanical forces to frequency modulate long-range calcium waves. An important consequence of this mechanical signaling is that changes in stiffness of the underlying extracellular matrix can i...
