Cellular Ca2+ Dynamics in Urinary Bladder Smooth Muscle From Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Na+-Ca2+ Exchanger

The rise of Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+] i ) by reducing external Na+ in urinary bladder smooth muscle cells (UBSMCs) from transgenic mice overexpressing Na+/Ca2+ exchanger type-1.3 (NCX1.3tg/tg) was about 4 times as large as that in the wild-type (WT). NCX1 protein expression in UB increased about 4-...
