The goal of the present study was to analyze the intercellular calcium communication between smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) by simultaneously monitoring artery diameter and intracellular calcium concentration in a rat mesenteric art ...
Aerolysin is a pore-forming toxin that plays a key role in the pathogenesis of Aeromonas hydrophila infections. In this study, we have analyzed the effect of aerolysin on human granulocytes (HL-60 cells). Proaerolysin could bind to these cells, was process ...
Previous reports have demonstrated that glutamate stimulates c-fos mRNA expression in primary cultures of mouse cerebral cortical neurons. We show here that vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) induces c-fos mRNA expression; however, this effect of VIP is c ...
Cytokines can be produced within the nervous system by various cell types, including astrocytes, which secrete them in response to pathological processes such as viral infections. Astrocytes are known to play an important role in the homeostasis of the ner ...
Many hormones, growth factors and neurotransmitters stimulate the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate evoking the release of calcium from intracellular stores. The depletion of these intracellular calcium stores subsequently activates a voltage-inde ...
A model of Ca2+ dynamics in spines of CA1 hippocampal neurons is presented. In contrast to traditional models, which concentrate on the effects of Ca2+ influx, diffusion, buffering, and extrusion, we also consider the additional effect of intracellular ...
Inositol 2,4,5-trisphosphate irreversibly activated capacitative calcium entry in Xenopus oocytes, whereas guanosine thiotriphosphate (GTP[S]) and AIF4- only activated capacitative calcium entry transiently. Both GTP[S] and AIF4- inhibited capacitative cal ...
Capacitative Ca2+ entry produces the very rapid light response in Drosophila photoreceptors; studies using this amenable system may help unravel the machinery and mechanisms that underlie this Ca2+-entry pathway. ...
Action potentials evoke calcium transients in dendrites of neocortical pyramidal neurons with time constants of < 100 ms at physiological temperature. This time period may not be sufficient for inflowing calcium ions to equilibrate with all present Ca2+-bi ...
Capacitative calcium entry is a major pathway through which intracellular calcium stores are refilled after stimulation. It has been suggested that the protein encoded by the transient receptor potential (trp) gene expressed in Drosophila photoreceptors ma ...
