Voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels, not ryanodine receptors, activate Ca(2+)-dependent BK potassium channels in human retinal pigment epithelial cells
PURPOSE: In different tissues the activation of large conductance Ca(2+)-activated (BK) potassium channels has been shown to be coupled to voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels as well as ryanodine receptors. As activation of BK channels leads to hyperpolarization of the cell, these channels provide a negat...
