▪ Abstract Calcium-activated chloride channels (CaCCs) play important roles in cellular
physiology, including epithelial secretion of electrolytes and water, sensory transduction …

Calcium-activated chloride channels (ClCa) are ligand-gated anion channels as they have
been shown to be activated by a rise in intracellular Ca2+ concentration in various cell types …

L‐type calcium channels (Cav1) represent one of the three major classes (Cav1–3) of
voltage‐gated calcium channels. They were identified as the target of clinically used calcium …

Three novel human sequences showing striking homology to the recently described bovine
Ca2+/calmodulin kinase II-dependent epithelial chloride channel bCaCC have been …

The tissue and cellular expression pattern of a recently cloned murine calcium-sensitive
chloride channel (mCaCC) was determined. In situ hybridization was performed on formalin …

It is well recognized that calcium (Ca) is an important regulatory element for many cellular
processes. In most eukaryotic cells a diverse array of Ca transporting systems functions to …

Calcium-activated chloride channels (CaCCs) participate in many different physiologic
processes such as transepithelial transport, excitability of neurons and muscle cells, and …

The family of voltage-gated calcium channels serves as the key transducers of cell surface
membrane potential changes into local intracellular calcium transients that initiate many …

To identify the gene products responsible for the calcium-activated chloride current in
smooth muscle, reverse transcription-PCR with degenerate primers was performed on …

Ca2+-activated Cl− channels control electrical excitability in various peripheral and central
populations of neurons. Ca2+ influx through voltage-gated or ligand-operated channels, as …
