α-Conotoxin Decontamination Protocol Evaluation: What Works and What Doesn’t
Toxins, 2017 Nine publically available biosafety protocols for safely handling conotoxin peptides were tested to evaluate their decontamination efficacy. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS) were used to assess the effect of each chemical ...

Inhibition of Escherichia coli chemotaxis by omega-conotoxin, a calcium ion channel blocker
, 1993 Escherichia coli chemotaxis was inhibited by omega-conotoxin, a calcium ion channel blocker. With Tris-EDTA-permeabilized cells, nanomolar levels of omega-conotoxin inhibited chemotaxis without loss of motility.

The Potential Role of Calcium Channels in Pulmonary Hypertension
BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe cardiovascular syndrome characterized by progressively elevated pulmonary arterial pressure and driven pathologically by sustained vasoconstriction and irreversible vascular remodeling. Growing evidence underscores the central role of calcium ion (Ca2+) signaling networks in PH pathogenesis, which dynamically ...

Neural Plasticity, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Synaptic plasticity is a fundamental property of the nervous system that underpins learning, memory, and adaptive behavior across the lifespan. Disruption of plasticity mechanisms is increasingly recognized as a unifying feature of age‐related neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders.
