Of the four major types of Ca channel described in vertebrate cells (designated T, L, N, and
P), N-type Ca channels are unique in that they are found specifically in neurons, have been …

The inhibition of L- and T-type Ca2+ currents by Gd3+ was studied in the rat pituitary GH4C1
cell line. In whole cell patch recordings, Gd3+ at concentrations of 50 nM to 5 microM …

1. The effects of the trivalent cations yttrium (Y3+), lanthanum (La3+), cerium (Ce3+), neodymium
(Nd3+), gadolinium (Gd3+), holmium (Ho3+), erbium (Er3+), ytterbium (Yb3+) and the …

Astrocytes are extensively coupled through gap junctions into a syncytium. However, the basic
role of this major brain network remains largely unknown. Using electrophysiological and …

The diffusion coefficient D has been measured for Xe 133 atoms diffusing through 12 liquid
n-alkanes, n-pentane through n-hexadecane, at 20.0 C. The dependence of D (cm 2/sec) on …

266 Enyeart primary messenger generated in response to ACTH receptor activation, cAMP
acts at multiple sites to produce the full steroidogenic response that includes both rapid and …

Bovine adrenal zona fasciculata (AZF) cells express a background K + channel (I AC ) that
sets the resting potential and acts pivotally in ACTH-stimulated cortisol secretion. We have …

Whole-cell patch clamp recording has been successfully used in identifying the voltage-dependent
gating and conductance properties of ion channels in a variety of cells. However, this …

cells I: T-type Ca2’ current. J Gen PhysiollO2:217-237 17. Enyeart JJ, Mlinar 8, Enyeart JA, …

Low voltage-activated, rapidly inactivating T-type Ca 2+ channels are found in a variety of
cells where they regulate electrical activity and Ca 2+ entry. In whole-cell patch clamp …
