Autoregulation of Cardiac l-Type Calcium Channels [PDF]
Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2009 l-Type calcium channels (LTCCs) are major contributors to electrical and contractile function of the heart. They regulate action potential duration, enable calcium entry into cardiac myocytes for contraction, and regulate growth-related signaling in the heart.

Ryanodine Receptors Selectively Interact with L Type Calcium Channels in Mouse Taste Cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 INTRODUCTION:WE REPORTED THAT RYANODINE RECEPTORS ARE EXPRESSED IN TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF MAMMALIAN PERIPHERAL TASTE RECEPTOR CELLS: Type II and Type III cells. Type II cells lack voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) and chemical synapses.

T-type calcium channel: a privileged gate for calcium entry and control of adrenal steroidogenesis
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2016 Intracellular calcium plays a crucial role in modulating a variety of functions such as muscle contraction, hormone secretion, gene expression or cell growth. Calcium signaling has been however shown to be more complex than initially thought.

Circulation Research, 2002 Voltage-gated calcium channels are essential for coupling membrane depolarization to the influx of calcium in all excitable cells. The calcium that flows into excitable cells through voltage-gated calcium channels serves a dual function, generating both electrical and chemical signals. The intracellular events controlled by calcium are diverse and many.
