Dihydropyridine Action on Voltage-dependent Potassium Channels Expressed in Xenopus Oocytes

Dihydropyridines (DHPs) are well known for their effects on L-type voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. However, these drugs also affect other voltage-dependent ion channels, including Shaker K+ channels. We examined the effects of DHPs on the Shaker K+ channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Intracellul...
