Natural L-type calcium channels antagonists from Chinese medicine [PDF]
Chinese MedicineL-type calcium channels (LTCCs), the largest subfamily of voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), are the main channels for Ca2+ influx during extracellular excitation.

Structure and function of potassium and calcium channels [PDF]
, 2005 In this thesis, potassium channels human Kv2.1 and rat Kv2.1, along with calcium channels Ca, 1.2, Ca, 3.1, and chimeras have been studied. These channels were expressed in Xenopuso ocytesf or electrophysiological experiments using two electrode voltage

Hydrogen sulfide regulates the colonic motility by inhibiting both L-type calcium channels and BKCa channels in smooth muscle cells of rat colon. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 To examine the hypothesis that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) regulates the colonic motility by modulating both L-type voltage-dependent calcium channels and large conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channels.Immunohistochemistry was performed on rat colonic ...

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.

Tissue-specific expression of calcium channels [PDF]
, 1993 The high-voltage-activated calcium channel is a multimeric protein complex containing 1, 2/δ, β, and γ subunits. The 1 subunit is the ion conduction channel and contains the binding sites for calcium channel blockers and toxins.

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.
