What Controls Smooth Muscle Function?

best way I can explain what I mean by this is for example: take a computer mouse and control it with your hand, see how the cursor moves smoothly and accuratly, how do I improve that? is it the skeletal muscles?

This is what I have come up with at the moment:

Nitric oxide:
I think nitric oxide is heavily involved in this and excess of it can make your movements inaccurate. I know there are three types of Nitric oxide enzymes with different functions, which one would be involved in movements? NOS1 ,NOS2 or NOS3?

''Nitric oxide (NO) contributes to vessel homeostasis by inhibiting vascular smooth muscle contraction''

Dopamine receptors. I know dopamine 1 and 2 rely on each other for smooth movement, not sure if other dopamine receptors are also involved. I guess these dopamine receptors act on the basal ganglia which is involved in movement.

I know high serotonin can make your aim bad.
''5-HT causes contraction of the vascular smooth muscle cells in most blood vessels ''

norepinephrine and adrenaline I think increases your smooth muscle movement

Acetylcholine I read has some function in this. ''Acetylcholine controls movements by activating skeletal muscles and causes muscle contraction''

histamine?calcium? BDNF?ACE inhibitors?NGF? etc

'' angiotensin II (AII) can effect vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation.''

''Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is produced following exposure to allergens. Its main functions include: Smooth muscle contraction''

''Higenamine stimulates muscles by activating beta-adrenergic receptors, which are responsible for smooth muscle relaxation (β2) and heart contractions (β1). This means that muscles can exert more force. '' ''Adrenergic receptors are involved in: Smooth muscle relaxation (β2 receptors)''

That is vascular smooth muscles. Its not related to skeletal muscles movement.

bump, what causes Vasoconstriction and Vassodilation?
