The physiological and pharmacological properties of the Ca2+ channel in outer hair cells (OHCs) freshly isolated from guinea pig cochlea were investigated using a whole-cell patch-clamp technique. The Ca2+ current (ICa) was activated from a membrane potential of -20 mV and reached peak value around +20 mV in external solution containing 20 mM Ca2+ at a holding potential of -70 mV. The peak amplitude of ICa increased in a hyperbolic manner with increasing extracellular Ca2+ concentration. The ion selectively was Ba2+ much greater than Ca2+ greater than or equal to Sr2+. It was concluded that the Ca2+ channel in OHCs of guinea pig is of the L-type.
采用全细胞膜片钳技术，研究了从豚鼠耳蜗新鲜分离的外毛细胞（OHCs）中Ca2+通道的生理和药理特性。在含有20 mM Ca2+的细胞外溶液中，于-70 mV的钳制电位下，Ca2+电流（ICa）从-20 mV的膜电位开始激活，并在+20 mV左右达到峰值。ICa的峰值幅度随细胞外Ca2+浓度的增加呈双曲线方式增加。离子选择性为Ba2+远大于Ca2+大于或等于Sr2+。得出结论，豚鼠OHCs中的Ca2+通道为L型。
