Free cytoplasmic Ca2+ and neurotransmitter release: studies on PC12 cells and synaptosomes exposed to alpha-latrotoxin.

Description : The relationship between the free cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration, [Ca2+]i, and neurotransmitter release was investigated in guinea pig brain synaptosomes and the neurosecretory cell line PC12. Release was induced by alpha-latrotoxin, which acts in both Ca2+ -containing and Ca2+ -free incubation medi...

Free [Ca2+] dynamics measured in agonist-sensitive stores of single living intact cells: a new look at the refilling process.

Description : Free [Ca2+] in agonist-sensitive internal stores of single intact cells was measured in situ in order to examine the role of [Ca2+] in modulating the store refilling process. BHK-21 fibroblasts were loaded with the low-affinity fluorescent calcium indicator mag-fura-2-AM such that >80% of the dye wa...

Direct in vivo monitoring of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ and cytosolic cAMP dynamics in mouse skeletal muscle

Description : Skeletal muscle contraction depends on the release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), but the dynamics of the SR free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]SR), its modulation by physiological stimuli such as catecholamines, and the concomitant changes in cAMP handling have never been directly determ...

In vivo monitoring of Ca2+ uptake into mitochondria of mouse skeletal muscle during contraction

Description : Although the importance of mitochondria in patho-physiology has become increasingly evident, it remains unclear whether these organelles play a role in Ca2+ handling by skeletal muscle. This undefined situation is mainly due to technical limitations in measuring Ca2+ transients reliably during the c...

Phorbol myristate acetate stimulates ATP-dependent calcium transport by the plasma membrane of neutrophils.

Description : We studied the effect of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) on the plasma membrane ATP-dependent calcium pump in neutrophils. Plasma membrane-enriched fractions ("podosomes") from PMA-stimulated guinea pig neutrophils exhibited a twofold stimulation of ATP-dependent calcium transport when compared with...

Endoplasmic reticulum, Bcl-2 and Ca2+ handling in apoptosis

Description : In the complex signalling interplay that allows extracellular signals to be decoded into activation of apoptotic cell death, Ca2+ plays a significant role. This is supported not only by evidence linking alterations in Ca2+ homeostasis to the triggering of apoptotic (and in some cases necrotic) cell ...

Odorant receptors at the growth cone are coupled to localized cAMP and Ca2+ increases.

Description : A distinctive feature in the topographic organization of the olfactory system in mammals is the dual function of the odorant receptor (OR): it detects odors in the nasal epithelium and plays an instructive role in the axonal convergence of olfactory sensory neurons (OSN) into the olfactory bulb (OB)...

Calcium and inositolphosphates in the activation of T cell-mediated cytotoxicity.

Description : Reports from a number of laboratories have shown that mAbs against the T3-Ti receptor complex cause an increase in cytosolic-free Ca2+ [( Ca2+]i) and the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositolbisphosphate (PIP2) in CTLs. In the present report we show that activation of CTLs by their specific targets cau...

Phosphorylation of BCL-2 regulates ER Ca2+ homeostasis and apoptosis

Description : Phosphorylation of BCL-2 within an unstructured loop inhibits its antiapoptotic effect. We found that phosphorylated BCL-2 predominantly localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and tested whether phosphorylation would control its activity at this organelle, where Ca2+ dynamics serve as a critica...
