    Defective survival of naive CD8+ T lymphocytes in the absence of the β3 regulatory subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels

    T cell activation triggers large calcium fluxes. Flavell and colleagues show tonic calcium signaling via Cav1.4-β3 channels are needed for the survival and homeostasis of naive CD8+ T cells.

    ORL1 receptor–mediated internalization of N-type calcium channels

    The inhibition of N-type calcium channels by opioid receptor like receptor 1 (ORL1) is a key mechanism for controlling the transmission of nociceptive signals. We recently reported that signaling complexes con...

    Agonist-independent modulation of N-type calcium channels by ORL1 receptors

    We have investigated modulation of voltage-gated calcium channels by nociceptin (ORL1) receptors. In rat DRG neurons and in tsA-201 cells, nociceptin mediated a pronounced inhibition of N-type calcium channels...

    P/Q-type calcium channels mediate the activity-dependent feedback of syntaxin-1A

    Spatial and temporal changes in intracellular calcium concentrations are critical for controlling gene expression in neurons1,2,3,4,5. In many neurons, activity-dependent calcium influx through L-type channels st...
