Difference between CACNA2D1 and Gabapentinoid

CACNA2D1 vs. Gabapentinoid

Voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit alpha-2/delta-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CACNA2D1 gene. Gabapentinoids, also known as α2δ ligands, are a class of drugs that are derivatives of the inhibitory neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) (i.e., GABA analogues) which block α2δ subunit-containing voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs).

Similarities between CACNA2D1 and Gabapentinoid

CACNA2D1 and Gabapentinoid have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Epilepsy, Gabapentin, Neuropathic pain, Pregabalin, Voltage-gated calcium channel.

Voltage-gated calcium channel

Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), also known as voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs), are a group of voltage-gated ion channels found in the membrane of excitable cells (e.g., muscle, glial cells, neurons, etc.) with a permeability to the calcium ion Ca2+.
