Regulation of reactivated contraction in teleost retinal cone models by calcium and cyclic adenosine monophosphate
We have been using lysed cell models of teleost retinal cones to examine the mechanism of contraction in nonmuscle cells. We have previously reported that dark-adapted retinas can be lysed with the detergent Brij-58 to obtain cone motile models that undergo Ca++- and adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent reactivated contraction. In this report we further dissect the roles of ATP and Ca++ in ac...
متن کاملRegulation of reactivated elongation in lysed cell models of teleost retinal cones by cAMP and calcium
Teleost retinal cones elongate in the dark and contract in the light. In isolated retinas of the green sunfish Lepomis cyanellus, cone myoids undergo microtubule-dependent elongation from 5 to 45 micron. We have previously shown that cone contraction can be reactivated in motile models of cones lysed with Brij-58. Reactivated contraction is both actin and ATP dependent, activated by calcium, an...
متن کاملRegulation of ciliary reversal in triton-extracted Paramecium by calcium and cyclic adenosine monophosphate.
A Triton-extracted model of Paramecium swims forwards when the Ca2+ concentration in the reactivation medium containing ATP is below 10(-6) M and swims backwards when Ca2+ concentration is above 10(-6) M. We found that cAMP (adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphoric acid) inhibited Ca-induced backward swimming of the model and caused forward swimming even when the [Ca2+] was above 10(-6) M. This ef...
متن کاملInduction of dark-adaptive retinomotor movement (cell elongation) in teleost retinal cones by cyclic adenosine 3','5-monophosphate
In the teleost retina, the photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) undergo extensive movements (called retinomotor movements) in response to changes in light conditions and to an endogenous circadian rhythm. Photoreceptor movements serve to reposition the light-receptive outer segments and are effected by changes in inner segment length. Melanin granule movements within the RPE cell...
متن کاملCircadian regulation of teleost retinal cone movements in vitro
In the retinas of many species of lower vertebrates, retinal photoreceptors and pigment epithelium pigment granules undergo daily movements in response to both diurnal, and in the case of teleost cone photoreceptors, endogenous circadian signals. Typically, these cone movements take place at dawn and at dusk when teleosts are maintained on a cyclic light (LD) regime, and at expected dawn and ex...
