An Elevation in the Concentration of Free Cytosolic Calcium
In granulocytes harvested from human blood, an elevation of the cytosolic concentration of Ca” ions is by itself insufficient to activate the cell’s respiratory burst. We report herein that, when granulocytes are “primed” by a 90-min preincubation with the recombinant human hemopoietic growth factor granulocytemacrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF,,,), elevation of the concentration of c...
متن کاملPlatelet cytosolic free calcium concentration, total plasma calcium concentration and blood pressure in human twins: a genetic analysis.
1. We used path analysis and maximum-likelihood model fitting to evaluate the relative contributions of genetic and environmental factors to the relationships observed between level of blood pressure and both total plasma calcium concentration and platelet cytosolic free calcium concentration in 109 twin pairs. 2. Total plasma calcium concentration was positively associated with systolic (r = 0...
متن کاملAntagonism of platelet-activating factor-induced increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration in human endothelial cells.
The effects of platelet-activating factor (PAF) antagonists on the agonist-induced increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration, [Ca2+]i, in human vascular endothelial cells grown in monolayer were investigated by a continuous superfusion technique using a calcium fluorescent probe, fura-2. PAF caused a small but dose-dependent increase in [Ca2+]i. Seven structurally dissimilar PAF antagoni...
متن کاملElevation in cytosolic free calcium concentration early in myocardial ischemia in perfused rat heart.
Changes in cytosolic free calcium concentration during myocardial ischemia were measured by 19F NMR in 5FBAPTA-loaded perfused rat hearts. The hearts were perfused with Krebs-Henseleit buffer containing 5 microM of the acetoxymethyl ester of 5FBAPTA, which was hydrolyzed by cytosolic esterases to achieve cytosolic concentrations of 5FBAPTA of 0.12 to 0.65 mM. Cytosolic free calcium concentratio...
متن کاملEffects of Parathyroid Hormone on Cytosolic Free Calcium Concentration in Individual Rabbit Connecting Tubules
PTH stimulates active Ca reabsorption in isolated perfused rabbit kidney connecting tubules (CNTs). The existence of PTH-sensitive adenylate cyclase and the reproduction of increased epithelial Ca transport by dibutyryl-cAMP suggest that cAMP is the mediator. Accordingly, we studied the effects of PTH and 8-bromoadenosine 3',5'-cAMP (8-Br-cAMP) on cytosolic free calcium concentration (ICa2"j;) ...
