Effects of the egg extract on voltage-gated calcium channels in DRG neurons. Legend: Patch-clamp technique was used to measure the calcium currents of rat DRG neurons (n = 5). (A) 100 μg/mL extract inhibited 47.7 ± 1.9% of total Ca2+ currents. (B) 100 μg/mL extract inhibited 48.7 ± 5.8% of HVA-Ca2+ currents. (C) 100 μg/mL extract inhibited 43.5 ± 3.6% of LVA-Ca2+ currents.
