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.

Human sperm ion channel (dys)function:implications for fertilization [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: Intensive research on sperm ion channels has identified members of several ion channel families in both mouse and human sperm. Gene knock-out studies have unequivocally demonstrated the importance of the calcium and potassium conductances in ...

Structural and Biophysical Analysis of the CLCA1 VWA Domain Suggests Mode of TMEM16A Engagement
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: The secreted protein calcium-activated chloride channel regulator 1 (CLCA1) utilizes a von Willebrand factor type A (VWA) domain to bind to and potentiate the calcium-activated chloride channel TMEM16A.

A functional role for small-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels in sensory pathways including nociceptive processes [PDF]
, 2005 We investigated the role of small-conductance calcium-activated potassium (SK) and intermediate-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels in modulating sensory transmission from peripheral afferents into the rat spinal cord.

Medicine, 2003 Overdose of calcium channel blockers is potentially lethal. Verapamil and diltiazem are much more dangerous than dihydropyridines. Hypotension with (verapamil and diltiazem) or without (dihydropyridines) heart block and bradycardia are the most important features.

The roles of the subunits in the function of the calcium channel [PDF]
, 1991 Dihydropyridine-sensitive voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels are critical to excitation-secretion and excitation-contraction coupling. The channel molecule is a complex of the main, pore-forming subunit alpha 1 and four additional subunits: alpha ...
