Effects of extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ on acetylcholine-induced contraction of the bladder detrusor muscle were studied in vitro, utilizing two types of Ca2+ antagonists of different mechanisms of action; verapamil and sodium nitroprusside (NP). Acetylcholine (10(-8) to 10(-2) M) caused dos
