Herein, we show that TNF exerts a pH-dependent increase in membrane conductance in primary lung microvascular endothelial cells and peritoneal macrophages. This effect was TNF receptor-independent, since it also occurred in cells isolated from mice deficie ...
The mode of Na+ entry and the dynamics of intracellular Na+ concentration ([Na+]i) changes consecutive to the application of the neurotransmitter glutamate were investigated in mouse cortical astrocytes in primary culture by video fluorescence microscopy. ...
Tumor necrosis factor TNF can trigger increases in membrane conductance of mammalian cells in a receptor-independent manner via its lectin-like domain. A lectin-deficient TNF mutant, lacking this activity, was able to bind to artificial liposomes in a pH-d ...
Two channels were observed in extracts of whole Mycobacterium bovis BCG cells using organic solvents and detergents. The channels derived from organic solvent treatment had a single-channel conductance of about 4.0 nS in 1 M KCl in lipid bilayer membranes ...
Eph receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) and their ephrin ligands are involved in the transmission of signals which regulate cytoskeletal organisation and cell migration, and are expressed in spatially restricted patterns at discrete phases during embryogenesis ...
The authors probed the function of receptor protein OmpF by in situ measurement of both the binding of ligands by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and subsequent changes of the channel activity by impedance spectroscopy (IS). [on SciFinder (R)] ...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute an abundant family of membrane receptors of high pharmacol. interest. Cell-based assays are the predominant means of assessing GPCR activation, but are limited by their inherent complexity. Functional mol. ass ...
In this work the authors have shown that stable gigaohm seals over micrometer-sized holes can be obtained in a time-frame of seconds by the electrophoretic self-positioning of charged lipid membranes. For the first time, single-channel events were recorded ...
The ability of organisms, or individual cells to sense and to react to different external and internal stimuli (light, hormones, odorants, taste) is crucial for their survival. I will report on our recent progress to investigate mol. signal recognition and ...
A theoretical model describing the attachment and cytoskeletal coupling of microspheres to the dorsal surface of motile cells was developed. Integral membrane receptors beneath a ligand-coated microsphere are allowed to be either free, attached to the micr ...
