Poly(Ethylene Glycol)-Cholesterol Inhibits L-Type Ca(2+) Channel Currents and Augments Voltage-Dependent Inactivation in A7r5 Cells

Cholesterol distributes at a high density in the membrane lipid raft and modulates ion channel currents. Poly(ethylene glycol) cholesteryl ether (PEG-cholesterol) is a nonionic amphipathic lipid consisting of lipophilic cholesterol and covalently bound hydrophilic PEG. PEG-cholesterol is used to for...
