| Key Mechanism Factor 2 | |||||||||
| Factor Name | Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel | Structure Sequence | |||||||
| Protein Family | Calcium channel beta subunit family | ||||||||
| Protein Function |
Regulatory subunit of L-type calcium channels (PubMed:1309651, PubMed:8107964, PubMed:15615847). Regulates the activity of L-type calcium channels that contain CACNA1A as pore-forming subunit (By similarity). Regulates the activity of L-type calcium channels that contain CACNA1C as pore-forming subunit and increases the presence of the channel complex at the cell membrane (PubMed:15615847). Required for functional expression L-type calcium channels that contain CACNA1D as pore-forming subunit (PubMed:1309651). Regulates the activity of L-type calcium channels that contain CACNA1B as pore-forming subunit (PubMed:8107964).

| Recommended Action | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Management | Caution is advised if PDE5 inhibitors are prescribed in combination with antihypertensive agents. Patients receiving the combination should be advised to avoid rising abruptly from a sitting or recumbent position, especially following treatment initiation or a dosage increase, and to contact their doctor if they experience symptoms of hypotension such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, or tachycardia. | ||||||||
