Expression and pharmacology of endogenous Cav channels in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells.

SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells provide a useful in vitro model to study the mechanisms underlying neurotransmission and nociception. These cells are derived from human sympathetic neuronal tissue and thus, express a number of the Cav channel subtypes essential for regulation of important physiolo...
