Abstract excerpt
1. The role of calcium (Ca2+) channel inactivation in the molecular mechanism of channel block by phenylalkylamines (PAAs) was analysed in a PAA-sensitive rabbit brain class A Ca2+ channel mutant (alpha1A-PAA). Use-dependent barium current (IBa) inhibition of alpha1A-PAA by (-)gallopamil and Ca2+ channel recovery from inactivation and block were studied with two-microlectrode voltage clamp after expression of...
