“…One receptor specifically binds, 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives with dissociation constants in the pM-nM range (Glossmann et al, 1982;Bolger et al, 1983;Fosset et al, 1983;Janis et al, 1984b;. Present evidence suggests that a single dihydropyridine receptor is responsible for binding both Ca channel activating and inhibiting dihydropyridines Williams et al, 1985;Kokubun et al, 1986;Hamilton et al, 1987;Maan & Hosey, 1987). However, some recent data Brown, Kunze & Yatani, 1986) suggests that there may be more than one high affinity binding site associated with the dihydropyridine receptor, one associated with activation of the channel and the other with inhibition (see below).…”
