Maitotoxin‐activated single calcium channels in guinea‐pig cardiac cells [PDF]
British Journal of Pharmacology, 1987 1. In order to clarify the mechanism of Ca-dependent excitatory action of maitotoxin (MTX), the most potent marine toxin known, patch-clamp techniques were used to analyse electrophysiological effects of MTX on guinea-pig isolated cardiac myocytes. 2. The whole-cell recordings showed that MTX (0.3 ng ml-1) produced a sustained inward current that was ...
