BAPTA-AM blocks both voltage-gated and Ca2+-activated K+ currents in cultured bovine chromaffin cells
The effects of the membrane permeant Ca2+ chelator BAPTA-AM on voltage-gated Na+, Ca2+, K+ (I(Na), I(Ca), I(K), respectively) and Ca2+-activated K+ (I(KCa)) currents in cultured bovine chromaffin cells were investigated using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. Superfusion with BAPTA-AM (50 μM) in...
