Regulation of Gene Transcription by Voltage-gated L-type Calcium Channel, Cav1.3
24 Dec 2014
Abstract excerpt
Cav1.3 L-type Ca(2+) channel is known to be highly expressed in neurons and neuroendocrine cells. However, we have previously demonstrated that the Cav1.3 channel is also expressed in atria and pacemaking cells in the heart. The significance of the tissue-specific expression of the channel is underpinned by our previous demonstration of atrial fibrillation in a Cav1.3 null mutant mouse model. Indeed, a recent...
