## Abstract Myotonic muscular dystrophy (DM) is characterized by abnormal skeletal muscle Na channel gating and reduced levels of myotonic dystrophy protein kinase (DMPK). Electrophysiological measurements show that mice deficient in __Dmpk__ have reduced Na currents in muscle. We now find that the
The effects of the alpha 1-agonist phenylephrine on the voltage-gated Ca2(+)-entry in vascular smooth muscle cells has been studied by measuring the agonist-induced changes of [Ca2+]i in K(+)-depolarized tissues. These changes have been estimated from the changes in fluorescence of the Ca2(+)-indica
