Properties of a store-operated nonselective cation channel in airway smooth muscle
Abstract
Passive depletion of internal Ca(2+) stores in airway smooth muscle (ASM) activates nonselective cation channels (NSCCs) that mediate capacitative Ca(2+) entry. However, the single channel properties of these cation channels have yet to be resolved and their regulation by cytosolic Ca(2+) levels ([Ca(2+)](i)) still remains unclear. NSCC currents and changes in [Ca(2+)](i) during passive depletion of internal Ca(2+) stores were monitored in …
