[Relation of Ca2+ efflux from the heart to the concentration of Ca-channel blockers].

Dependence of calcium ion efflux from the heart ventricles on the concentration of verapamil, fenigidine and nicardipine was studied in frogs, using Ca-sensitive electrodes. The effect of sodium and potassium ions was also investigated. It was established that dependence of calcium ion efflux (delta Ca2+) on the concentration of Ca-antagonists (B) may be expressed by the following formula: (Formula: see text).

[Relationship between incurrent flow, calcium ion concentration and membrane potential].

A dependence of the inward current across the cell membrane giant neurones at garden snail was investigated under voltage champ. It has been concluded that there are two components of the inward current: a calcium-dependent and I0. The latter current probably was carried by sodium ions.
