Calcium channel block by cadmium in chicken sensory neurons.
Cadmium block of calcium channels was studied in chicken dorsal root ganglion cells by a whole-cell patch clamp that provides high time resolution. Barium ion was the current carrier, and the channel type studied had a high threshold of activation and fast deactivation (type FD). Block of these channels by 20 microM external Cd2+ is voltage dependent. Cd2+ ions can be cleared from blocked chann...

متن کاملCalcium channel subtypes in lamprey sensory and motor neurons.
Pharmacologically distinct calcium channels have been characterized in dissociated cutaneous sensory neurons and motoneurons of the larval lamprey spinal cord. To enable cell identification, sensory dorsal cells and motoneurons were selectively labeled with fluorescein-coupled dextran amine in the intact spinal cord in vitro before dissociation. Calcium channels present in sensory dorsal cells,...
متن کاملBlock of N-type Calcium Channels in Chick Sensory Neurons by External Sodium
L-type Ca2+ channels select for Ca2+ over sodium Na+ by an affinity-based mechanism. The prevailing model of Ca2+ channel permeation describes a multi-ion pore that requires pore occupancy by at least two Ca2+ ions to generate a Ca2+ current. At [Ca2+] < 1 microM, Ca2+ channels conduct Na+. Due to the high affinity of the intrapore binding sites for Ca2+ relative to Na+, addition of microM conc...
متن کاملPotentiation of local lignocaine-induced sensory block by calcium channel blockers in rats.
We have studied the effects of three different types of calcium channel blockers (verapamil, diltiazem, and nicardipine) on local lignocaine sensory block. The standardized tail flick test was used to measure the duration and degree of lignocaine-induced conduction block in rats. After obtaining baseline tail flick latencies (mean 3.2 s), two 100-microliter doses of 0.3% lignocaine alone, a com...
