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 ...

Calcium channel blockers

open access: yesMedicine, 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.

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 ...

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 ...

A chloride channel in rat and human axons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Current recordings from single chloride channels were obtained from excised and cell-attached patches of rat and human axons. In rat axons the channels showed an outwardly rectifying current-voltage relationship with a slope conductance of 33 pS at ...

Small-molecule CaVα1⋅CaVβ antagonist suppresses neuronal voltage-gated calcium-channel trafficking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Extracellular calcium flow through neuronal voltage-gated CaV2.2 calcium channels converts action potential-encoded information to the release of pronociceptive neurotransmitters in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord, culminating in excitation of the ...

L-type calcium channels regulate filopodia stability and cancer cell invasion downstream of integrin signalling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Mounting in vitro, in vivo and clinical evidence suggest an important role for filopodia in driving cancer cell invasion. Using a high-throughput microscopic-based drug screen, we identify FDA-approved calcium channel blockers (CCBs) as potent inhibitors

Membrane Currents in Airway Smooth Muscle: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 1997
Electrophysiological and pharmacological techniques were used to characterize the membrane conductance changes underlying spasmogen-evoked depolarization in airway smooth muscle (ASM).

T-type calcium channel: a privileged gate for calcium entry and control of adrenal steroidogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Low voltage activation of KCa1.1 current by Cav3-KCa1.1 complexes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Calcium-activated potassium channels of the KCa1.1 class are known to regulate repolarization of action potential discharge through a molecular association with high voltage-activated calcium channels.
