Neurotoxicity induced by bupivacaine via T-type calcium channels in SH-SY5Y cells.

There is concern regarding neurotoxicity induced by the use of local anesthetics. A previous study showed that an overload of intracellular calcium is involved in the neurotoxic effect of some anesthetics. T-type calcium channels, which lower the threshold of action potentials, can regulate the infl...
