Abstract excerpt
cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (cGKI) induces relaxation of smooth muscle via several pathways that include inhibition of intracellular Ca(2+) signaling and/or involve activation of myosin phosphatase. In the present study, we investigated these mechanisms comparatively in colon and jejunum long...
