A calcium-induced calcium influx factor, nitric oxide, modulates the refilling of calcium stores in astrocytes.
The roles of nitric oxide are primarily undefined in astrocytes, cells that are active partners in synaptic transmission. Because nitric oxide synthases are present in astrocytes, we imaged the formation of nitric oxide in cultured murine cortical astrocytes using DAF-FM (4-amino-5-methylamino-2',7'-difluorofluorescein diacetate). We demonstrated that physiological concentrations of ATP induced...
متن کاملRefilling of cortical calcium stores in Paramecium cells: in situ analysis in correlation with store-operated calcium influx.
This is the first thorough study of refilling of a cortical calcium store in a secretory cell after stimulation in which we combined widely different methodologies. Stimulation of dense-core vesicle ("trichocysts") exocytosis in Paramecium involves a Ca(2+) -influx" superimposed to Ca(2+) -release from cortical stores ("alveolar sacs" (ASs)). In quenched-flow experiments, membrane fusion freque...
متن کاملCalcium influx factor is synthesized by yeast and mammalian cells depleted of organellar calcium stores.
Depletion of endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stores leads to the entry of extracellular Ca2+ into the cytoplasm, a process termed capacitative or store-operated Ca2+ entry. Partially purified extracts were prepared from the human Jurkat T lymphocyte cell line and yeast in which Ca2+ stores were depleted by chemical and genetic means, respectively. After microinjection into Xenopus laevis oocytes, th...
متن کاملNicotinic cholinergic signaling in hippocampal astrocytes involves calcium-induced calcium release from intracellular stores.
In this report we provide evidence that neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are present on hippocampal astrocytes and their activation produces rapid currents and calcium transients. Our data indicate that these responses obtained from astrocytes are primarily mediated by an AChR subtype that is functionally blocked by alpha-bungarotoxin (alpha Bgt) and contains the alpha7 subun...

نتایج این مطالعه نشان می دهد که مقدار کلسیم (یونیزه و تام)، منیزیم و فسفر به طور معنی داری تغییر پیدا کرد به جزء مقدار کلسیم تام و منیزیم در روش داخل عضلانی که تغییر معنی داری نداشته است. بر اساس نتایج این مطالعه می توان نتیجه گیری کرد که اکسی تتراساکلین بر روی مقادیر سرمی کلسیم و منیزیم تأثیر می گذارد باید مقدار این کاتیون ها در بیماران، در هنگامی که اکسی تتراسایکلین استفاده می شود مورد توجه ق...
