This occurs through opening of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP₃R)- and/or ryanodine receptor (RyR)-operated Ca²⁺ release channels in the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic (SR/ER) reticulum and refilling by the SR/ER reticulum Ca²⁺ATPase (SERCA). Released Ca²⁺ from stores near the plasma membrane diffuse through the cytosol to open Ca2²⁺-activated chloride (Cl⁻) channels, this generating inward current through an efflux of Cl⁻. The resultant depolarisation leads to the opening of voltage-dependent Ca²⁺ channels and possibly increased production of IP3, which through Ca²⁺-induced Ca²⁺ release (CICR) of IP₃Rs and/or RyRs and IP₃R-mediated Ca²⁺ release provide a means by which store oscillators entrain their activity. Intercellular entrainment normally involves current flow through gap junctions that interconnect mural cells and in many cases this is aided by additional connectivity through the endothelium. Once entrainment has occurred the substantial Ca²⁺ entry that results from the near-synchronous depolarisations leads to rhythmical contractions of the mural cells, this often leading to vessel constriction. The basis for venous/venular vasomotion has yet to be fully delineated but could improve both venous drainage and capillary/venular absorption of blood plasma-associated fluids.]]> Wed 02 Nov 2022 09:13:14 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:7011 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:38:04 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:11317 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:35 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:5571 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:49:18 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:5775 Fri 06 Nov 2020 13:15:39 AEDT ]]>
