Abstract
Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory process characterized by proliferation and dedifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Ca(v)1.2 calcium channels may have a role in atherosclerosis because they are essential for Ca(2+)-signal transduction in VSMC. The pore-forming Ca(v)1.2alpha1 subunit of the channel is subject to alternative splicing. Here, we investigated whether the Ca(v)1.2alpha1 splice variants are affected by...
