Lettris

Lettris is a curious tetris-clone game where all the bricks have the same square shape but different content. Each square carries a letter. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words (left, right, up, down) from the falling squares.

boggle

Boggle gives you 3 minutes to find as many words (3 letters or more) as you can in a grid of 16 letters. You can also try the grid of 16 letters. Letters must be adjacent and longer words score better. See if you can get into the grid Hall of Fame !

The T-type calcium channel is a type of voltage-gated calcium channel. "T" stands for transient referring to the length of activation. As with other sub-types of voltage-gated calcium channel, the α1 subunit is the one that determines most of the channel's properties. T-type calcium channels may contain one of three α1 subunits, α1G (Cav3.1), α1H (Cav3.2) or α1I (Cav3.3)[1][2][3].

Along with sodium "funny current," the T-type calcium channel produces the pacemaker potential in the SA node of the heart.[4]

T-type calcium channel blockers are used primarily as antiepileptics.[5]
