Imaging large cohorts of single ion channels and their activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
As calcium is the most important signaling molecule in neurons and secretory cells, amongst many other cell types, it follows that an understanding of calcium channels and their regulation of exocytosis is of vital importance.

Emerging roles of L-type voltage gated and other calcium channels in T lymphocytes.

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
In T lymphocytes, calcium ion controls a variety of biological processes including development, survival, proliferation, and effector functions. These distinct and specific roles are regulated by different calcium signals, which are generated by various ...

Junctate is a key element in calcium entry induced by activation of InsP3 receptors and/or calcium store depletion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In many cell types agonist-receptor activation leads to a rapid and transient release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores via activation of inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (InsP(3)) receptors (InsP(3)Rs).

TRP channels in microglia: role in physiology and disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Microglia are responsible for modulating the cellular environment in the nervous system, where they have neuroprotective effects. In these cells has been reported the expression of different ion channels, including those belonging to the transient ...

SLO BK Potassium Channels Couple Gap Junctions to Inhibition of Calcium Signaling in Olfactory Neuron Diversification. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
The C. elegans AWC olfactory neuron pair communicates to specify asymmetric subtypes AWCOFF and AWCON in a stochastic manner. Intercellular communication between AWC and other neurons in a transient NSY-5 gap junction network antagonizes voltage ...

Lavender oil-potent anxiolytic properties via modulating voltage dependent calcium channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recent clinical data support the clinical use of oral lavender oil in patients suffering from subsyndromal anxiety. We identified the molecular mechanism of action that will alter the perception of lavender oil as a nonspecific ingredient of aromatherapy

Functional Coupling of Cav2.3 and BK Potassium Channels Regulates Action Potential Repolarization and Short-Term Plasticity in the Mouse Hippocampus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Voltage-gated ion channels are essential for signal generation and propagation in neurons and other excitable cells. The high-voltage activated calcium-channel Cav2.3 is expressed throughout the central and peripheral nervous system, and within CA1 ...

Developmental Regulation of Small-Conductance Ca²⁺-Activated K⁺ Channel Expression and Function in Rat Purkinje Neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Calcium transients play an important role in the early and later phases of differentiation and maturation of single neurons and neuronal networks. Small-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels of the SK type modulate membrane excitability and ...
