Until recently we held the simple view that voltage-gated calcium channels consisted of an
α1 subunit, usually associated with auxiliary β subunits and α2δ subunits and that skeletal …

Neuropathic pain results from damage to the peripheral sensory nervous system, which may
have a number of causes. The calcium channel subunit α2δ-1 is upregulated in dorsal root …

Hypothalamic magnocellular neurons release vasopressin and oxytocin not only from their
axon terminals into the blood, but also from their somata and dendrites into the extracellular …

The α2δ subunits of voltage-gated calcium channels are important modulatory subunits that
enhance calcium currents and may also have other roles in synaptogenesis. The …

Collapsin response mediator proteins (CRMPs) mediate signal transduction of neurite
outgrowth and axonal guidance during neuronal development. Voltage-gated Ca2+ …

Loss of the RNA-binding protein fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) represents the
most common form of inherited intellectual disability. Studies with heterologous expression …

Abstract Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), a gasotransmitter, facilitates pain sensation by targeting
Ca v 3.2 T-type calcium channels. The H 2 S/Ca v 3.2 pathway appears to play a role in the …

The melastatin (M) transient receptor potential (TRP) channel TRPM4 mediates pressure
and protein kinase C (PKC)-induced smooth muscle cell depolarization and vasoconstriction …

Elimination of the Kv1. 3 voltage‐dependent potassium channel gene produces striking
changes in the function of the olfactory bulb, raising the possibility that this channel also …

Magnocellular neurons of the supraoptic nucleus (SON) secrete oxytocin and vasopressin
from axon terminals in the neurohypophysis, but they also release large amounts of peptide …
