Ergosterol-induced sesquiterpenoid synthesis in tobacco cells.
Plants have the ability to continuously respond to microbial signals in their environment. One of these stimuli is a steroid from fungal membranes, ergosterol, which does not occur in plants, but acts as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern molecule to trigger defence mechanisms. Here we investigated the effect of ergosterol on the secondary metabolites in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cells b...
متن کاملCadmium Induces Transcription Independently of Intracellular Calcium Mobilization
BACKGROUND Exposure to cadmium is associated with human pathologies and altered gene expression. The molecular mechanisms by which cadmium affects transcription remain unclear. It has been proposed that cadmium activates transcription by altering intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) and disrupting calcium-mediated intracellular signaling processes. This hypothesis is based on sever...
متن کاملCalcium mobilization in myogenesis
Vasopressin (AVP), oxytocin (OT) and related peptides induce differentiation and hypertrophy in myogenic cells expressing the V1a-vasopressin receptor (V1aR) or the oxytocin receptor (OTR). Either receptor can transduce both ligand signals. Binding of AVP and OT to the V1aR the target cells activates phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis, which in turn releases Ca 2+ from internal stores. The AVP-dep...
متن کاملSecretagogue induced calcium mobilization in single pancreatic acinar cells.
Microspectrofluorometry of fura-2 was utilized to monitor [Ca2+]i in single acinar cells stimulated with a cholinergic agonist and cholecystokinin. A similar amplitude of agonist induced Ca mobilization between single cell and populational approaches was observed. New findings in single cells not observable in populations of cells include: 1) the maintenance of a sustained elevation in [Ca2+]i ...
متن کاملEndotoxin impairs agonist-induced calcium mobilization in rat mesangial cells.
We hypothesized that endotoxin would impair agonist-induced calcium (Ca2+) mobilization in rat mesangial cells, owing to the induction of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and augmented nitric oxide (NO) synthesis. We measured basal and bradykinin-induced peak free cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations through microspectrofluorimetry with fura-2 in confluent mesangial cells, and assayed conditioned medium fo...
