DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropharm.2017.12.022
Abstract: ABSTRACT Voltage‐gated calcium channels (VGCCs) are critical regulators of many cellular functions, including the activity‐dependent release of chemical neurotransmitter from nerve terminals. At nerve terminals, the Cav2 family of VGCCs are closely positioned with neurotransmitter‐containing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6560/acbf9c
Abstract: Non-ergodicity of neuronal dynamics from rapid ion channel gating through the membrane induces membrane displacement statistics that deviate from Brownian motion. The membrane dynamics from ion channel gating were imaged by phase-sensitive optical coherence microscopy.… read more here.
