We have used digital fluorescence imaging techniques to explore the interplay between mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake and physiological Ca2+ signaling in rat cortical astrocytes. A rise in cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]cyt), resulting from mobilization of ER Ca2+ stores was followed by a rise in mitochondrial Ca2+ ([Ca2+]m, monitored using rhod-2). Whereas [Ca2+]cyt recovered within approximately 1 min, the ...
Cardiac hypothermia alters contractility and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) homeostasis. We examined how left ventricular pressure (LVP) is altered as a function of cytosolic [Ca2+]iover a range of extracellular CaCl2 concentration ([CaCl2]e) during perfusion of isolated, paced guinea pig hearts at 37°C, 27°C, and 17°C. Transmural LV phasic [Ca2+] was measured using the Ca2+ indicat...
The relative importance of the Na+/Ca2+exchanger in the initial and terminal phases of relaxation and the decline in the [Ca2+]itransient was investigated in adult rabbit ventricular myocytes loaded with the Ca2+ indicator fluo 3. For electrically stimulated contractions, the peak intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was 700 ± 87 nM and end-diastolic [Ca2+]iwas 239 ± 30 nM (0.25 Hz, 37°C,...
AbstractIn the present work we set out to investigate the neuroprotective effects of noscapine (0.5-2 µM) in presence of D-glucose on primary murine foetal cortical neurons after oxygen–glucose deprivation/24 hrs recovery. Cell viability, nitric oxide production and intracellular calcium ([ca2+]i) levels were evaluated by MTT assay, the modified Griess method and Fura-2 respectively. 25 and 100...
Altered sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-ATPase and Na+-Ca2+ exchange (NCX) function have been implicated in depressing SR Ca2+ content and contractile function in heart failure (HF). Enhanced diastolic ryanodine receptor (RyR) leak could also lower SR Ca2+ load in HF, but direct cellular measurements are lacking. In this study, we measure SR Ca2+ leak directly in intact isolated rabbit ventric...
The process of Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) comprises 4 phases in smooth muscle cells. Phase 1 is characterized by a large increase of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) with a minimal reduction of the free luminal SR [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]FSR). Importantly, active SR Ca2+ ATPases (SERCA pumps) are necessary for phase 1 to occur. This situation cannot be explained by the st...
Intracellular Ca2+ mobilization is closely linked with the initiation of salivary secretion in parotid acinar cells. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to be related to a variety of oxidative stress-induced cellular disorders and believed to be involved in salivary impairments. In this study, we investigated the underlying mechanism of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on cytosolic Ca2+ accumulatio...
Cytosolic Ca2+ (Ca2+c) clearance from adrenal chromaffin cells was studied by whole-cell patch clamp and indo-1 Ca2+ photometry after influx of Ca2+ through voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. We isolated the rates of Ca2+c clearance by several mechanisms using combinations of the following agents (with their expected targets): Li+ or TEA substituted for Na+ (Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange), 1 mM La3+ applie...
Umm Er Radhuma Aquifer (UER) is the most important groundwater aquifer in Saudi Arabia, extending over 1.6 M·km2 eastern part of Arabian Peninsula, forming main throughout Rub’ Al-Khali (RAK). Groundwater salinity increased from west to east, reaching more than 27,000 mg/L near border with United Arab Emirates, where a Na+-Ca2+Clˉ- water type dominated. Gibbs diagrams indicated that dissolution...
To investigate the cellular mechanisms for altered Ca2+ homeostasis and contractility in cardiac hypertrophy, we measured whole-cell L-type Ca2+ currents (ICa,L), whole-cell Ca2+ transients ([Ca2+]i), and Ca2+ sparks in ventricular cells from 6-month-old spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and from age- and sex-matched Wistar-Kyoto and Sprague-Dawley control rats. By echocardiography, SHR he...
