    Abstract:
    The mathematical model of smooth muscles contractile activity Ca(2+)-dependent control has been proposed on the base of Ca ions trans-sarcomal exchange biochemical mechanisms interpretation in myocytes. While analysing the model the conclusion should be made that kinetic parameters changes (in relation to Ca ions) Mg2+, ATP-dependent calcium pump of plasma membrane--Michaelis constant Km and transport process maximal velocity Vmax-render the effect on the character of the intracellular calcium transients and profile of full mechanokinetic curve. As well one more conclusion has been made that plasma membrane Mg2+, ATP-dependent calcium pump, which kinetic parameters under the physiologic conditions are subjected to modulation as the result of metabolic, pharmacologic and physico-chemical factors fulfills the essential role in supplying Ca(2+)-dependent control of the smooth muscles contractile response full cycle.
