External Ca2+-dependent Ca2+ release in directly stimulated diaphragm muscles of mice.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intracellular Ca2+ release in directly stimulated diaphragm muscles of mice was found to be dependent on external Ca2+, using the intracellular Ca2+ aequorin luminescence transient technique. The Ca2+ mobilization into the cells may operate via a voltage- and external Ca2+-dependent mechanism, and via a caffeine- and external Ca2+-independent one, from the Ca2+ pools in plasma membranes or in the terminal cisternae of sarcoplasmic reticulum.

The effects of calcium ions, ionophore A23187 and inhibition of energy metabolism on protein degradation in the rat diaphragm and epitrochlearis muscles in vitro.
1. The effects of external Ca2+, EGTA, ionophore A23187, CN-, dinitrophenol and iodoacetamide on the rate of protein degradation in the rat diaphragm and epitrochlearis muscles in vitro were investigated. 2. External Ca2+ increased protein degradation when compared with external EGTA. Protein degradation was further increased by Ca2+ + ionophore A23187. 3. EGTA and ionophore A23187 decreased AT...
متن کاملVoltage-dependent calcium channels in pituitary cells in culture. II. Participation in thyrotropin-releasing hormone action on prolactin release.
Depolarization of membrane potential by high external K+ activates Ca2+ influx via voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels in GH4C1 cells (Tan, K.-N., and Tashjian, A. H., Jr. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 418-426). The involvement of this channel in thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) action on prolactin (PRL) release was assessed by comparing the pharmacological characteristics of TRH-induced PRL releas...
متن کاملThe effect of stress and glucocorticoids on modulation of pain in mice: Interaction with activation of voltage dependent Ca2+ channel
Previous studies indicated that stress and glucocorticoids have modulatory effects on acute pain. The aim of present study was to determine the interaction between stress and glucocorticoids with activation of voltage dependent Ca2+ channel on modulation of acute pain in mice. Male albino mice (25-30 g) were used for this experiment. Tail flick and hot plate were used for evaluation of analgesi...

متن کاملReceptor-stimulated phospholipase A2 activation is coupled to influx of external calcium and not to mobilization of intracellular calcium in C62B glioma cells.
C62B rat glioma cells respond to muscarinic cholinergic stimulation with transient inositol phosphate formation and phospholipase A2-dependent arachidonic acid liberation. Since phospholipase A2 is a Ca2+-sensitive enzyme, we have examined the role of the agonist-stimulated Ca2+ response in production of the arachidonate signal. The fluorescent indicator fura-2 was used to monitor changes in cy...
