Scientists report the origin and molecular mechanisms of calcium signals that control the internal anal sphincter (IAS) basal tone, using a combination approach including a novel IAS slice preparation that retains cell arrangement and architecture as in vivo, 2‐photon imaging, and cell‐specific gene‐modified mice.
