The requirement of endothelial NO synthase (NOS3) calcium to produce NO is well described, although the effect of NO on intracellular calcium levels [Ca(2+)](i) is still confusing. Therefore, NO and [Ca(2+)](i) cross-talk were studied in parallel in endothelial cells possessing a functional or a dysfunctional NO pathway.
