## Abstract The highly dynamic nature of voltageβgated Na^+^ channel (VGSC) expression and its controlling mechanism(s) are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the possible involvement of nerve growth factor (NGF) in regulating VGSC activity in the strongly metastatic MatβLyLu cell

## Abstract The main aim of this investigation was to determine whether a functional relationship existed between epidermal growth factor (EGF) and voltageβgated sodium channel (VGSC) upregulation, both associated with strongly metastatic prostate cancer cells. Incubation with EGF for 24 h more tha
Voltage-gated Na / channels, classically associated with impulse conduction in excitable tissues, are also found in a variety of epithelial cell types where their possible functions are not known so well. We have previously reported expression of a voltage-gated Na / channel specifically in the high
## Abstract The secretory membrane activities of two rat prostate cancer cell lines of markedly different metastatic potential, and corresponding electrophysiological characteristics, were studied in a comparative approach. In particular, voltageβgated Na^+^ channels (VGSCs) were expressed in the s
