Mechanisms of vascular smooth muscle contraction and the basis for pharmacologic treatment of smooth muscle disorders [PDF]
The smooth muscle cell directly drives the contraction of the vascular wall and hence regulates the size of the blood vessel lumen. We review here the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which agonists, therapeutics, and diseases ...
