All hollow organs, such as blood vessels, the gastrointestinal
tract, airways, male and female reproductive systems, and the
urinary bladder are primarily composed of smooth muscle. Such
organs regulate flow, propulsion and mixing of luminal contents and
storage by the contraction and relaxation of smooth muscle cells.
Smooth muscle cells respond to numerous inputs, including pressure,
shear stress, intrinsic and extrinsic innervation, hormones and
other circulating molecules, as well as autocrine and paracrine
factors. This book is a review of smooth muscle cell regulation in
the cardiovascular, reproductive, GI, and other organ systems with
emphasis on calcium and receptor signaling. Key selling features:
Focuses on smooth muscles of different types Describes ion channel
signaling mechanisms Reviews calcium and receptor signaling
Includes novel, cutting-edge methodologies Summarizes studies of
mice with genetically encoding sensors in smooth muscle Chapter 9
