Experiments have shown that in the vascular smooth muscle neferine (Nef) can markedly reduce the 45Ca-influx induced by phenylephrine, but does not affect the 45Ca-influx induced by mmol/L KCl, which is almost completely inhibited by nifedipine. Neferine does not inhibit 45Ca-efflux.

D002118	Calcium	A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
