Cholesterol influences voltage-gated calcium channels and BK-type potassium channels in auditory hair cells. [PDF]
The influence of membrane cholesterol content on a variety of ion channel conductances in numerous cell models has been shown, but studies exploring its role in auditory hair cell physiology are scarce.

Ca2+ entry through NaV channels generates submillisecond axonal Ca2+ signaling
Calcium ions (Ca2+) are essential for many cellular signaling mechanisms and enter the cytosol mostly through voltage-gated calcium channels. Here, using high-speed Ca2+ imaging up to 20 kHz in the rat layer five pyramidal neuron axon we found that ...

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

Inactivation of CACNA1H induces cell apoptosis by initiating endoplasmic reticulum stress in glioma
Ca2+ channels are abnormally expressed in various tumor cells and are involved in the progression of human glioma. Here, we explored the role of a calcium channel, voltage-dependent, T-type, alpha 1H subunit (CACNA1H), which encodes T-type Ca2+ channel ...

A CACNA1A variant associated with trigeminal neuralgia alters the gating of Cav2.1 channels
A novel missense mutation in the CACNA1A gene that encodes the pore forming α1 subunit of the CaV2.1 voltage-gated calcium channel was identified in a patient with trigeminal neuralgia.

Leptin-Induced Endothelium-Independent Vasoconstriction in Thoracic Aorta and Pulmonary Artery of Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats: Role of Calcium Channels and Stores. [PDF]
Decreased leptin-induced endothelium-dependent vasodilation has been reported in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Here, we report leptin-induced vasoconstriction in endothelium-denuded pulmonary artery and thoracic aorta from SHR and sought to ...

Molecular Pharmacology of Voltage-Dependent Calcium Channels
Voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels serve as the only link to transduce membrane depolarization into cellular Ca(2+)-dependent reactions. A wide variety of chemical substances that have the ability to modulate Ca2+ channels have been demonstrated both for their clinic utility and for importance in elucidating the molecular basis of various biological ...
