In a variety of smooth muscle cells, agonists activating membrane receptors induce oscillations in the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration via an inositol trisphosphate-activated mechanism. Ca2+ oscillations participate in the control of cell membrane potential and the tone of smooth muscle. There is evidence that alterations in Ca2+ oscillations modulate smooth muscle responsiveness.
