a(CHEBI:anandamide) association complex(GO:"voltage-gated calcium channel complex") View Subject | View Object

Anandamide, a compound originally isolated from porcine brain extracts, is known to interact with canabinoid receptors 1 and 2 in the brain (120, 159). However, anandamide interacts with numerous other receptors, including voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (357), voltage-gated K+ channels (293), 5-HT3 receptors (358), kainate receptors (3), and nAChRs (356). At nanomolar concentrations, anandamine blocks noncompetitively and voltage independently the activation of alpha7 nAChRs ectopically expressed in Xenopus oocytes (356). It also inhibits the activity of alpha4beta2 nAChRs expressed in SH-EP1 cells (443). PubMed:19126755

bp(GO:"depolarization of postsynaptic membrane") increases act(complex(GO:"voltage-gated calcium channel complex")) View Subject | View Object

If there is intense stimulation of all three nAChRs, the resulting depolarization can trigger activation of voltage- gated Ca2+ channels (VGCC), which in turn would activate the calcineurin pathway and prevent CREB activation. PubMed:19126755

act(p(HBP:"alpha-4 beta-2 nAChR")) decreases act(complex(GO:"voltage-gated calcium channel complex")) View Subject | View Object

A concurrent activation of preterminal alpha4beta2 nAChRs would hyperpolarize the neuron via GABAergic inhibition and prevent activation of the VGCC. PubMed:19126755

a(CHEBI:tetrodotoxin) decreases act(complex(GO:"voltage-gated calcium channel complex")) View Subject | View Object

This effect of preterminal nAChRs is inhibited by tetrodotoxin, which blocks sodium channels and, thus, prevents the regenerative voltage-dependent activation of calcium channels in the presynaptic bouton. PubMed:17009926

bp(GO:"membrane depolarization") increases act(complex(GO:"voltage-gated calcium channel complex")) View Subject | View Object

In addition, nAChR activity produces a depolarization that activates voltage-gated calcium channels in the presynaptic terminal (87). PubMed:17009926

p(HGNC:CHRNA7) increases act(complex(GO:"voltage-gated calcium channel complex")) View Subject | View Object

Preterminal nAChRs located before the presynaptic terminal bouton indirectly affect neurotransmitter release by activating voltage-gated channels and, potentially, initiating action potentials (78, 91, 93). PubMed:17009926
