The novel antiepileptic agent gabapentin (Neurontin) binds with high affinity to the alpha 2 delta subunit of a voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel. We report here a simple purification scheme for detergent-solubilized alpha 2 delta subunits from porcine brain. This involves sequential chromatography on
In order to develop novel central acting drugs, the modulation of intracellular Ca 2 dynamics must be considered as an essential factor, since following excessive Ca 2 in¯ux to neuronal cells, abnormal intracellular Ca 2 concentrations induce several types of mental and neurological disorders. This
