Membrane depolarization induces calcium-dependent secretion of tissue plasminogen activator.
Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), a serine protease that converts inactive plasminogen to active plasmin, is produced in the rat and mouse hippocampus and participates in neuronal plasticity. To help define the role of tPA in the nervous system, we have analyzed the regulation of its expression in the neuronal cell line PC12. In control cultures, tPA activity is exclusively cell-associated, a...
متن کاملDepolarization of Electromagnetic Waves By Sea Surface
An improved Two Scale Model (TSM) has been investigated for the depolarization of electromagnetic waves from sea surface. Classical TSM produce depolarized results due to the tilt of reflecting plane. To include the contribution of actual phenomenon we add the second order scattering effects at small scale and develop an improved TSM. Numerical results are obtained for both backscattering and b...

Signaling between cells is an essential property of multicellular organisms. Since it was recognized that external signals—first messengers—have to be translated inside cells into specific responses mediated by second messengers, it became evident that next to cyclic AMP, the classical second messenger, Ca plays a central role in converting extracellular signals into a multitude of intracellula...
متن کاملSlow calcium waves accompany cytokinesis in medaka fish eggs
Animal cells are cleaved by the formation and contraction of an extremely thin actomyosin band. In most cases this contractile band seems to form synchronously around the whole equator of the cleaving cell; however in giant cells it first forms near the mitotic apparatus and then slowly grows outwards over the cell. We studied the relationship of calcium to such contractile band growth using ae...
متن کاملSurfing on Calcium Waves
A key question in brain development is how migration of neuronal precursors is guided to establish the ordered laminar layers. In the April 20, 2007 issue of Cell, Guan et al. show that the leading process of migrating cerebellar granule neurons senses repulsive Slit molecules by generating a Ca(2+) wave that propagates to the soma to cause reversal of cell polarity and migration.
