title: [Calcium channel as molecular target of drug action].
abstract: The authors discuss the recent acquisitions concerning the function and the molecular structure of Ca++ channels in excitable cells. Furthermore, they focus on the clinical pharmacology of Ca++ entry blockers in order to give more insight into the pharmacological basis for their therapeutic use.
