A voltage-gated sodium channel is essential for the positive selection of CD4(+) T cells

Sustained Ca(2+) entry into CD4(+)CD8(+) double-positive thymocytes is required for positive selection. We identified a voltage-gated Na(+) channel (VGSC), essential for positive selection of CD4(+) T cells. Pharmacological inhibition of VGSC activity inhibitedsustained Ca(2+) influx induced by posi...
