Calcium Regulation of a Slow AHP in Hippocampal Pyramidal Cells
A slow afterhyperpolarization (sAHP) in CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells is calcium-dependent and involves activation of KCa3.1 and KCNQ potassium channels. Both KCa3.1 and KCNQ channels bind calmodulin (CaM) as a calcium sensor, with an additional role proposed for the protein hippocalcin. We …
