Capacitative calcium entry in parotid acinar cells.

The intracellular Ca2+ indicator, fura-2, was used to monitor changes in cytosolic [Ca2+] in parotid acinar cells. When parotid cells were incubated in a medium containing low [Ca2+], and [Ca2+] was restored to the physiological range, there was a small increase in cytosolic [Ca2+]. If, however, the cells were first activated by a muscarinic agonist, and receptor activation was terminated befor...

Activation of ERK1/2 by Store-Operated Calcium Entry in Rat Parotid Acinar Cells

The regulation of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) plays a critical role in a variety of cellular processes, including transcription, protein activation, vesicle trafficking, and ion movement across epithelial cells. In many cells, the activation of phospholipase C-coupled receptors hydrolyzes membrane phosphoinositides and produces the depletion of endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) st...

Activation of calcium entry by the tumor promoter thapsigargin in parotid acinar cells. Evidence that an intracellular calcium pool and not an inositol phosphate regulates calcium fluxes at the plasma membrane.

The depletion of an inositol 1, 4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ pool has been proposed to be the signal for Ca2+ entry in agonist-activated cells. Consistent with this idea, thapsigargin, which releases intracellular Ca2+ without inositol phosphate formation, has been reported to activate Ca2+ entry in certain cells. We now report the effects of thapsigargin on Ca2+ entry in paro...

Effect of thapsigargin on cytosolic Ca2+ level and amylase release in rat parotid acinar cells.

At concentrations greater than 0.01 microM, thapsigargin (ThG) dose-dependently caused an increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in rat parotid acinar cells, as measured by the fluorescent Ca(2+)-indicator fura-2. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, a transient increase in [Ca2+]i by ThG was observed, and subsequent addition of carbachol (CCh) did not produce a further [Ca2+]...

Calcium metabolism and amylase release in rat parotid acinar cells.

1. A method is described for the isolation of rat parotid acinar cells by controlled digestion of the gland with trypsin followed by collagenase. As judged by Trypan Blue exclusion, electron microscopy, water, electrolyte and ATP concentrations and release of amylase and lactate dehydrogenase, the cells are morphologically and functionally intact. 2. A method was developed for perifusion of aci...
