Downregulation of TMEM16A has no effect on nonselective cation current (I NSC). I NSC was evoked by dialyses of isolated SMCs with 400 μM GTPγS from the patch pipette. SMCs were held at −50 mV and the GTPγS-evoked I NSC current reached a peak 3 to 7 min after breakthrough to the whole-cell configuration (indicated by an arrow in a). This I NSC was inhibited by 10 μM GdCl3. a Representative current trace at holding potential −50 mV recorded on SMC isolated from an artery transfected with Tmem16a-siRNA. b The averaged current–voltage relationships for baseline membrane currents recorded immediately after breaking through the patch membrane and the peak I NSC recorded in SMCs isolated from nontransfected arteries (n = 6), arteries transfected with eGFP-siRNA (n = 6), and arteries transfected with Tmem16a-siRNA (n = 8)
