Abstract figure legend Proposed mechanism of regulation of mitochondria on VDCCs mediated Ca2+ signals in smooth muscle cells. Depolarization of the plasma membrane induces Ca2+ influx via L‐type VDCCs that produces a steady elevation in Ca2+ and activates IP3Rs to evoke repetitive Ca2+ release events from the intracellular Ca2+ store.
