A) Activate a kinase that phosphorylates phospholipase C, which inactivates it.
B) Activate an enzyme that degrades DAG.
C) Add a compound that acts as an agonist of IP3 with respect to calcium ion channel binding.
D) Add a compound that acts as an agonist of calcium ion with respect to MLCK activation.
E) Add a compound that acts as an agonist of oxytocin with respect to oxytocin cell membrane receptor binding.
