Low-voltage-activated calcium channels are referred to as 'T' type because their currents are both transient, owing to fast inactivation, and tiny, owing to small conductance. T-type channels are thought to be involved in pacemaker activity, low-threshold calcium spikes, neuronal oscillations and resonance, and rebound burst firing.[1] ## See also[edit | edit source] * T-type calcium channel ## References[edit | edit source] 1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 "Entrez Gene: CACNA1H calcium channel, voltage-dependent, T type, alpha 1I subunit". 2. ↑ Mittman S, Guo J, Emerick MC, Agnew WS (July 1999).
