mediating this rapid progesterone action on VSMC relaxation through mPRα, particularly changes in intracellular calcium levels, their regulation by intracellular signaling pathways, and the involvement changes in RhoA/Rho kinase (ROCK) signaling, have not

Introduction Calcium ions have a variety of beneficial roles in living organisms. Their function is pleiotropic, ranging from the regulation of signaling cascades in a single cell to a wide variety of physiological functions at the organ level

Introduction to the CASR Extracellular calcium (Ca 2+ e ) is required for diverse biological functions ranging from blood coagulation, mineralisation of bone matrix, muscle contraction and hormone secretion ( Brown 1991 ). Thus, calcium

Introduction The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) is a class C homo-dimeric G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that plays a fundamental role in extracellular calcium (Ca 2+ e ) homeostasis by regulating parathyroid hormone (PTH) release and

Introduction The calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) is a plasma membrane G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) abundantly expressed in the parathyroid gland and kidney tubule where it plays a key role as the ‘calciostat’, maintaining extracellular fluid
