Abstract
The calcium antagonist flunarizine is shown to be able to prevent particle aggregation, membrane aggregation and blebbing resulting from elevated calcium concentrations. The anti-ischemic effects of flunarizine may therefore result in part from its ability to directly interfere with calcium-membrane interactions and thus prevent the lethal membrane reorganizations which occur after a period of ischemia during intracellular calcium overload.Entities:
