Kurtoxin
Kurtoxin is a selective Cav3 (T-type) voltage-gated Ca2+ channel gating inhibitor with a Kd of 15 nM for Cav3.1 (α1G T-type) Ca2+ channel. Kurtoxin can interact with high affinity with native neuronal high-threshold L-type, N-type, and P-type Ca2+ channels in central and peripheral neurons. Kurtoxin also shows cross-reactivity with voltage-gated Na+ channel.

Ca2+ Staining Technique
Ca2+ staining is an experimental technique that utilizes specific fluorescent probes (such as Fluo-4 AM, Fura-2, etc.) to qualitatively or quantitatively detect dynamic changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations; this is achieved by monitoring the changes in fluorescent signals generated when these probes bind to free intracellular calcium ions. The underlying principle relies primarily on the presence of chelating groups within the probe's molecular structure that possess high affinity for calcium ions.
