Mammalian nAChRs are cation selective, being permeable to small monovalent and divalent cations that can fit through the narrowest hydro- philic region of the open pore (Albuquerque et al., 2009; Dani, 1989; Dani & Bertrand, 2007; Dani & Eisenman, 1987). PubMed:26472524

tloc(a(MESH:"Cations, Divalent"), fromLoc(MESH:"Extracellular Space"), toLoc(MESH:"Intracellular Space")) increases bp(GO:"membrane depolarization") View Subject | View Object

While nAChR activity causes depolarization, the divalent cation permeability plays an impor- tant physiological role by supplying ionic signals, including calcium (Bertrand, Galzi, Devillers-Thiery, Bertrand, & Changeux, 1993b; Dani & Bertrand, 2007; Decker & Dani, 1990; Gray, Rajan, Radcliffe, Yakehiro, & Dani, 1996; McGehee, Heath, Gelber, Devay, & Role, 1995; Vernino et al., 1992).
