Calcium(2+) activates KCNH2. 12 / 12

reach
"Several preclinical studies suggest an important role for sodium, potassium (Ca activated, outward rectifying, and hERG) and chloride ion-channels as well as Na-K-Cl cotransporter on GBM cell migration and parenchymal invasion, possibly through effects on cellular volume and shape."
reach
"Although we can not definitively rule out the possibility that Ca 2+ causes an allosteric change in HERG channels that mimics a specific association near the activation voltage sensor, our data are consistent with a simple Ca 2+ -induced change in membrane potential sensed specifically by the activation process."

"Targets (2007) 11 (3) 329 The hERG potassium channel as a therapeutic targetExceptions include the calcium channel antagonist verapamil, which blocks hERG at clinically relevant concentrations [129], as does the antihistamine clemastine [130] and the selective serotonin receptor inhibitor citalopram [131]; yet none of these are associated with a substantial clinical risk of QT prolongation, TdP or even AP duration lengthening [132]."
