Calcium Channel Blockers [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2011 KEY POINTS AND PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS: • Calcium channel blockers, which dilate arteries by reducing calcium flux into cells, effectively lower blood pressure, especially in combination with other drugs, and some formulations of agents of this class are approved for treating angina or cardiac dysrhythmias.

The ER calcium channel Csg2 integrates sphingolipid metabolism with autophagy
Nature Communications, 2023 Sphingolipids are ubiquitous components of membranes and function as bioactive lipid signaling molecules. Here, through genetic screening and lipidomics analyses, we find that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium channel Csg2 integrates sphingolipid ...

Tissue-specific expression of calcium channels [PDF]
, 1993 The high-voltage-activated calcium channel is a multimeric protein complex containing 1, 2/δ, β, and γ subunits. The 1 subunit is the ion conduction channel and contains the binding sites for calcium channel blockers and toxins.

Energetics of discrete selectivity bands and mutation-induced transitions in the calcium-sodium ion channels family [PDF]
, 2013 We use Brownian dynamics (BD) simulations to study the ionic conduction and valence selectivity of a generic electrostatic model of a biological ion channel as functions of the fixed charge Qf at its selectivity filter.

Discovery and Development of Calcium Channel Blockers
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2017 In the mid 1960s, experimental work on molecules under screening as coronary dilators allowed the discovery of the mechanism of calcium entry blockade by drugs later named calcium channel blockers. This paper summarizes scientific research on these small

Cholesterol influences voltage-gated calcium channels and BK-type potassium channels in auditory hair cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The influence of membrane cholesterol content on a variety of ion channel conductances in numerous cell models has been shown, but studies exploring its role in auditory hair cell physiology are scarce.
