What is a voltage-gated calcium channel in the pancreas?
As the voltage-gated calcium channels get activated they trigger glucose-induced insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cell which increases diabetes risk.
What happens when calcium channels are activated?
When the calcium channel pore gets activated calcium ions flow into the cell resulting in an increased concentration of calcium in the cell and generating cell signalling.

Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers a Voltage-gated Calcium Channel (VGCC) Test in Godhra to detect antibodies for P/Q type and N-type voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCC) antibodies as an aid in the diagnosis of Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS)
Overview of Voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) antibodies
Voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) antibodies tests are done to evaluate muscle weakness in the context of neuromuscular junction disorder. This test also diagnoses paraneoplastic neurological syndromes and Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS). LEMS is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system mistakenly targets healthy cells and tissues in the body by producing antibodies that enable nerve cells to release enough of a chemical called acetylcholine thus resulting in muscle weakness.

How to interpret a Voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) antibodies Test?
To interpret the VGCC antibodies test result, a technique of radioimmunoprecipitation (RIA) reports results in the form of a ratio for VGCC N-type antibodies and as pmol / L for P/Q type antibodies. The parameters are listed below
Parameter | Gender | Normal range | Unit |
VGCC antibodies | Male/Female | Negative: 0.0-25.5 Indeterminate: 24.6-45.6 Positive: 45.7 or greater | Pmol/L |
