“…In cerebellar granule cells, for example, synaptic inputs from mossy fibers may induce hyperpolarizing shifts in both half‐activation and half‐inactivation voltages of K V 4 channels, thereby invoking long‐term increase in granule cell excitability (Rizwan, Zhan, Zamponi, & Turner, ). Furthermore, in cerebellar granule and stellate cells, T‐type Ca 2+ (Ca V 3) channels form a signaling complex with K V 4 and the Ca 2+ ‐sensing KChIP, whereby Ca V 3‐mediated Ca 2+ influx significantly enhances I SA by causing depolarizing shift of K V 4 half‐inactivation voltage (Anderson et al, ; Heath et al, ; Molineux, Fernandez, Mehaffey, & Turner, ). The physiological significance of this Ca V 3‐K V 4 signaling complex is further underlined by the findings that Ca V 3 current density critically determines regional differences in membrane excitability and spike output of granule cells (Heath et al, ), and that extracellular Ca 2+ may regulate inhibitory outputs from stellate cells to cerebellar Purkinje cells (Anderson et al, ).…”
