“…The Ca V channel subtypes identified in axons are both cell type- and species-dependent and include the T-, P/Q- or N-type Ca V channels ( Callewaert et al, 1996 ; Bender and Trussell, 2009 ; Yu et al, 2010 ; Gründemann and Clark, 2015 ; Zhang and David, 2016 ). At the AIS in particular the T-type Ca 2+ channel mediates AP-dependent Ca 2+ influx ( Bender and Trussell, 2009 ; Martinello et al, 2015 ; Fukaya et al, 2018 ; Jin et al, 2019 ). However, in the prefrontal cortical pyramidal neuron AIS about 70% of the AP-evoked [Ca 2+ ] i remains following pharmacological block of T-type Ca V channels ( Clarkson et al, 2017 ).…”
