Contributions of CaV1.3 Channels to Ca2+ Current and Ca2+-Activated BK Current in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus
Daily regulation of Ca2+– and voltage-activated BK K+ channel activity is required for action potential rhythmicity in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus, the brain's circadian clock. In SCN neurons, BK activation is dependent upon multiple types of Ca2+ channels in a circadi...
