Na+ channel-mediated Ca2+ entry leads to glutamate secretion in mouse neocortical preplate.
Before synaptogenesis, early excitability implicating voltage-dependent and transmitter-activated channels is known to be crucial for neuronal development. We previously showed that preplate (PP) neurons of the mouse neocortex express functional Na(+) channels as early as embryonic day 12. In this study, we investigated the role of these Na(+) channels in signaling during early development. In ...
متن کاملNa+/Ca2+ exchange-mediated calcium entry in human lymphocytes.
Regulation of cytosolic Ca2+ and cytosolic Na+ is critical for lymphocyte cation homeostasis and function. To examine the influence of cytosolic Na+ on Ca2+ regulation in human peripheral blood lymphocytes, Ca2+ entry and cytosolic Ca2+ (measured with fura-2) were monitored in cells in which cytosolic Na+ was increased and/or the Na+ gradient was decreased by reduction of external Na+ concentra...
متن کاملDefective STIM-mediated store operated Ca2+ entry in hepatocytes leads to metabolic dysfunction in obesity
Defective Ca2+ handling is a key mechanism underlying hepatic endoplasmic reticulum (ER) dysfunction in obesity. ER Ca2+ level is in part monitored by the store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) system, an adaptive mechanism that senses ER luminal Ca2+ concentrations through the STIM proteins and facilitates import of the ion from the extracellular space. Here, we show that hepatocytes from obese mice...
متن کاملRole of Na+/Ca2+ exchanger-mediated Ca2+ entry in pressure-induced myogenic constriction in rat posterior cerebral arteries.
The involvement of Ca2+ entry via the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) in myogenic constriction of rat posterior cerebral arteries was investigated. RT-PCR identified mRNA for NCX1, 2, and 3 in the arteries. Na+ removal increased [Ca2+]i, which was reduced by the NCX inhibitor SEA0400. SEA0400 inhibited the development, but not the steady-state, of pressure-induced myogenic constriction, whereas it dec...
متن کاملGlutamate transporter-mediated glutamate secretion in the mammalian pineal gland.
Glutamate transporters are expressed throughout the CNS where their major role is to clear released glutamate from presynaptic terminals. Here, we report a novel function of the transporter in rat pinealocytes. This electrogenic transporter conducted inward current in response to L-glutamate and L- or D-aspartate and depolarized the membrane in patch-clamp experiments. Ca2+ imaging demonstrated...
