Different mechanisms of calcium entry within different dendritic compartments.
From our experiments combining in vivo calcium imaging and electrophysiology on fly vertical motion-sensitive cells (VS-cells) during visual stimulation, we infer different mechanisms of calcium entry within different dendritic compartments; while in the main dendritic branches calcium influx from extracellular space takes place only via voltage-activated calcium channels (VACCs), calcium enter...
متن کاملA simulation study of brain compartments. Metabolism of glutamate and related substances in mouse brain.
A computer model of the metabolism of glutamate, glutamine, gamma-aminobutyrate, and the tricarboxylic acid cycle in mouse brain has been constructed in terms of 39 reactions among 19 substances or groups of substances (permitting manipulation of 30 independent variables). The model is divided into two compartments, in conformity with previous models based on indirect evidence, and it is found ...
متن کاملThe calcium-sensing receptor complements parathyroid hormone-induced bone turnover in discrete skeletal compartments in mice.
Although the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) may each exert skeletal effects, it is uncertain how CaSR and PTH interact at the level of bone in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Therefore, we simulated PHPT with 2 wk of continuous PTH infusion in adult mice with deletion of the PTH gene (Pth(-/-) mice) and with deletion of both PTH and CaSR genes (Pth(-/-)-Casr (...
متن کاملQuantitative calcium measurements in subcellular compartments of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes.
The acidic food vacuole exerts several important functions during intraerythrocytic development of the human malarial parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Hemoglobin taken up from the host erythrocyte is degraded in the food vacuole, and the heme liberated during this process is crystallized to inert hemozoin. Several anti-malarial drugs target food vacuolar pathways, such as hemoglobin degradation ...
متن کاملDevelopmental changes in calcium content of ultrastructurally distinct subcellular compartments of preimplantation human embryos.
The ultrastructural localization of mobilizable Ca2+ in different subcellular compartments of human oocytes and preimplantation embryos was studied using the potassium-pyroantimonate technique and transmission electron microscopy; the specificity was confirmed by chelation experiments and X-ray microanalysis. In unfertilized oocytes, Ca2+ was detected in small vesicles beneath the plasma membra...
