Increase the time that Ca2+ channels are closed
Relaxation of the arterial smooth muscle but not much effect on venous smooth muscle
Significant reduction in afterload but not preload
CCBs – Mechanisms of Action
The different binding sites of CCBs result in differing pharmacological effects
Voltage-dependent binding (targets smooth muscle)
Use-dependent binding (targets cardiac cells)

Why Do CCBs Act Selectively on Cardiac and Vascular Muscle?

Skeletal muscle relies on intracellularCa2+ for contraction
Cardiac cells rely on L-type Ca2+ channels for contraction and for the upstroke of the AP in slow response cells

Vascular smooth muscle relies on Ca2+ influxthrough L-type Ca2+ channels for contraction

CCBs Act Selectively on Cardiovascular Tissues
Neurons rely on N-and P-type Ca2+ channels
Skeletal muscle relies primarily on [Ca]i
Cardiac muscle requires Ca2+ influx through L-type Ca2+ channels - contraction (fast response cells) - upstroke of AP (slow response cells)
Vascular smooth muscle requires Ca2+ influx
through L-type Ca2+ channels for contraction
