Difference between Vasodilation and Voltage-gated calcium channel

Vasodilation vs. Voltage-gated calcium channel

Vasodilation is the widening of blood vessels. Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), also known as voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs), are a group of voltage-gated ion channels found in the membrane of excitable cells (e.g., muscle, glial cells, neurons, etc.) with a permeability to the calcium ion Ca2+.

Similarities between Vasodilation and Voltage-gated calcium channel

Vasodilation and Voltage-gated calcium channel have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adrenal gland, Autonomic nervous system, Calcium, Hormone, Myosin, Myosin light-chain kinase, Neurotransmitter, Sarcoplasmic reticulum, Smooth muscle tissue, Sodium.

Adrenal gland

The adrenal glands (also known as suprarenal glands) are endocrine glands that produce a variety of hormones including adrenaline and the steroids aldosterone and cortisol.

Autonomic nervous system

The autonomic nervous system (ANS), formerly the vegetative nervous system, is a division of the peripheral nervous system that supplies smooth muscle and glands, and thus influences the function of internal organs.

Calcium

Calcium is a chemical element with symbol Ca and atomic number 20.

Hormone

A hormone (from the Greek participle “ὁρμῶ”, "to set in motion, urge on") is any member of a class of signaling molecules produced by glands in multicellular organisms that are transported by the circulatory system to target distant organs to regulate physiology and behaviour.

Myosin

Myosins are a superfamily of motor proteins best known for their roles in muscle contraction and in a wide range of other motility processes in eukaryotes.

Myosin light-chain kinase

Myosin light-chain kinase also known as MYLK or MLCK is a serine/threonine-specific protein kinase that phosphorylates a specific myosin light chain, namely, the regulatory light chain of myosin II.

Neurotransmitter

Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemicals that enable neurotransmission.

Sarcoplasmic reticulum

The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is a membrane-bound structure found within muscle cells that is similar to the endoplasmic reticulum in other cells.
