Cinnamomi ramulus Ethanol Extract Exerts Vasorelaxation through Inhibition of Ca2+ Influx and Ca2+ Release in Rat Aorta
Contraction of vascular smooth muscle cells depends on the induction of cytosolic calcium ion (Ca2+) due to either Ca2+ influx through voltage-gated Ca2+ channels or to receptor-mediated Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The present study investigated the vasorelaxation effect of Cinnamo...
