Inhibition of TRPC5 channels by intracellular ATP.
TRPC5 channels are Ca(2+)-permeable nonselective cation channels activated by G-protein-coupled receptors, although the mechanisms responsible for channel activation and regulation are poorly understood. Carbachol-activated TRPC5 currents were recorded by the whole-cell patch clamp technique from human embryonic kidney 293 cells transiently transfected with TRPC5 and the M1 muscarinic receptor....
متن کاملAbsorption of Lead Ions by Various Types of Steel Slag
Steel slags are the by products of steel industries, which forms during reduction process of iron melting. The chemical composition of it changes depending to the melting procedure. Its mineralogical composition also varies based on the cooling procedure. Two different types of steel slag were used as absorbing bed for various concentrations of Pb2+ ions in the form of lead chlor...
متن کاملStimulation of erythrocyte phosphatidylserine exposure by lead ions.
Pb+ intoxication causes anemia that is partially due to a decreased life span of circulating erythrocytes. As shown recently, a Ca(2+)-sensitive erythrocyte scramblase is activated by osmotic shock, oxidative stress, and/or energy depletion, leading to exposure of phosphatidylserine at the erythrocyte surface. Because macrophages are equipped with phosphatidylserine receptors, they bind, engulf...
متن کاملMicrofluidic pumping by micromolar salt concentrations.
An ion-exchange-resin-based microfluidic pump is introduced that utilizes trace amounts of ions to generate fluid flows. We show experimentally that our pump operates in almost deionized water for periods exceeding 24 h and induces fluid flows of μm s-1 over hundreds of μm. This flow displays a far-field, power-law decay which is characteristic of two-dimensional (2D) flow when the system is st...
متن کاملInvestigation of Langmuir and Freundlich Adsorption Isotherm of Pb2+ Ions by Micro Powder of Cedar Leaf
ABSTRACTIn this work, the micro powder was the product of cedar leaf (MPCL) is used as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of Pb2+ ions from aqueous solutions. Bath experiments were used to determine the best adsorption conditions The adsorption percentage of Pb2+ ions MPCL samples at different initial pH, contact time (tc), adsorbent dosage and temperature (T) were investigated. Effective rem...
