Calcium-dependent inactivation of the dihydropyridine-sensitive calcium channels in GH3 cells
The inactivation of calcium channels in mammalian pituitary tumor cells (GH3) was studied with patch electrodes under voltage clamp in cell-free membrane patches and in dialyzed cells. The calcium current elicited by depolarization from a holding potential of -40 mV passed predominantly through one class of channels previously shown to be modulated by dihydropyridines and cAMP-dependent phospho...
متن کاملCalcium-dependent Inactivation of the Dihydropyridine-sensitive Calcium Channels in GHa Cells
The inactivation of calcium channels in mammalian pituitary tumor cells (GHa) was studied with patch electrodes under voltage clamp in cell-free membrane patches and in dialyzed cells. The calcium current elicited by depolarization from a holding potential of 4 0 mV passed predominantly through one class of channels previously shown to be modulated by dihydropyridines and cAMP-dependent phospho...
متن کاملCalcium-dependent inactivation of light-sensitive channels in Drosophila photoreceptors
Whole-cell voltage clamp recordings were made from photoreceptors of dissociated Drosophila ommatidia under conditions when the light-sensitive channels activate spontaneously, generating a "rundown current" (RDC). The Ca2+ and voltage dependence of the RDC was investigated by applying voltage steps (+80 to -100 mV) at a variety of extracellular Ca2+ concentrations (0-10 mM). In Ca(2+)-free Rin...
متن کاملVoltage-dependent calcium channels--beyond dihydropyridine antagonists.
The blockade of L-type calcium channels by dihydropyridines, phenylalkylamines and benzothiazepines has been well described and forms the basis of a multibillion dollar market for the treatment of cardiovascular disease and migraine. More recently, neuron-specific calcium channels have become the subject of intense interest regarding their potential as therapeutic targets for the treatment of c...
متن کاملCharacterization of dihydropyridine-sensitive calcium channels in rat brain synaptosomes.
We examined the effects of dihydropyridine Ca2+-channel agonists on synaptosomal voltage-dependent Ca2+ entry and endogenous dopamine release. The (-) isomer of Bay K 8644 and the (+) isomer of Sandoz compound 202-791 were 100-1000 times more potent than their respective opposite enantiomers in enhancing Ca2+ uptake and dopamine release from striatal synaptosomes. The active isomer of each of t...
