| Description: | Voltage-dependent cell membrane glycoproteins selectively permeable to calcium ions. They are categorized as L-, T-, N-, P-, Q-, and R-types based on the activation and inactivation kinetics, ion specificity, and sensitivity to drugs and toxins. The L- and T-types are present throughout the cardiovascular and central nervous systems and the N-, P-, Q-, & R-types are located in neuronal tissue. |
| Synonyms: |
Ion Channels, Calcium; Calcium Channel Blocker Receptor; Calcium Ion Channels; Calcium Channel Antagonist Receptor; Receptors, Calcium Channel Blocker; Calcium Channels, Voltage-Dependent; VDCC; Receptors, Calcium Channel Antagonist; Calcium Channel Blocker Receptors; Voltage-Dependent Calcium Channels.
