Voltage-gated calcium channel autoimmune cerebellar degeneration
Objectives: To describe response to treatment in a patient with autoantibodies against voltagegated calcium channels (VGCCs) who presented with autoimmune cerebellar degeneration and subsequently developed Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS), and to study the effect of the patient’s autoantibodies on Purkinje cells in rat cerebellar slice cultures. Methods: Case report and study of rat cer...
متن کاملLRRK2 Regulates Voltage-Gated Calcium Channel Function
Voltage-gated Ca(2+) (CaV) channels enable Ca(2+) influx in response to membrane depolarization. CaV2.1 channels are localized to the presynaptic membrane of many types of neurons where they are involved in triggering neurotransmitter release. Several signaling proteins have been identified as important CaV2.1 regulators including protein kinases, G-proteins and Ca(2+) binding proteins. Recentl...
متن کاملBARP suppresses voltage-gated calcium channel activity and Ca2+-evoked exocytosis
Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) are key regulators of cell signaling and Ca(2+)-dependent release of neurotransmitters and hormones. Understanding the mechanisms that inactivate VGCCs to prevent intracellular Ca(2+) overload and govern their specific subcellular localization is of critical importance. We report the identification and functional characterization of VGCC β-anchoring and -r...
متن کاملVoltage-gated calcium channels direct neuronal migration in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Calcium signaling is known to be important for regulating the guidance of migrating neurons, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying this process are not well understood. We have found that two different voltage-gated calcium channels are important for the accurate guidance of postembryonic neuronal migrations in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. In mutants carrying loss-of-function alleles ...
متن کاملNeuronal Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels: Structure, Function, and Dysfunction
Voltage-gated calcium channels are the primary mediators of depolarization-induced calcium entry into neurons. There is great diversity of calcium channel subtypes due to multiple genes that encode calcium channel α1 subunits, coassembly with a variety of ancillary calcium channel subunits, and alternative splicing. This allows these channels to fulfill highly specialized roles in specific neur...
