Breeding of Cav2.3 deficient mice reveals Mendelian inheritance in contrast to complex inheritance in Cav3.2 null mutant breeding

Abstract High voltage-activated Cav2.3 R-type Ca2+ channels and low voltage-activated Cav3.2 T-type Ca2+ channels were reported to be involved in numerous physiological and pathophysiological processes. Many of these findings are based on studies in Cav2.3 and Cav3.2 deficient mice. Recently, it has...
