It is well recognized that pathologically increased mechanical stretch plays a critical role in vascular remodeling during hypertension. However, how the stretch modulates the functions of ion channels of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) remains to be elucidated. Here, we demonstrated the effects of mechanical stretch on the activity of large c...
