It is generally accepted that voltage-gated Ca<sup>2+</sup> channels, CaV, regulate Ca<sup>2+</sup> homeostasis in excitable cells following plasma membrane depolarization. Here, we show that the Ca<sup>2+</sup> protein α1D of CaV1.3 channel is overexpressed in colorectal cancer biopsies compared to normal tissues. Gene silencing experiments targeting α1D reduced the migration and the basal cytosolic Ca<sup>2+</sup> concentration of HCT116 colon cancer cell line and modified the cytosolic Ca<sup ...[more]
