The spatial organization of agonist-induced Ca2+ entry in single bovine adrenal chromaffin cells has been investigated using video-imaging techniques to visualize fura-2 quenching by the Ca2+ surrogate, Mn2+. The potent secretagogue histamine, in addition to releasing Ca2+ from intracellular stores, resulted in a large influx of external Mn2+ that occurred over the entire surface of the cell. T...
In fura-2-loaded ECV304 cells ionomycin elicited a saturable biphasic change in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), where the initial phase represented mobilization of intracellular stores and the sustained component represented Ca2+ influx. To examine whether ionomycin could stimulate influx via a store-dependent mechanism. Mn2+ entry was monitored by the quenching of fura-2 fluorescen...
The human beta 1,3-glucuronosyltransferase I (GlcAT-I) is the key enzyme responsible for the completion of glycosaminoglycan-protein linkage tetrasaccharide of proteoglycans (GlcA beta 1,3Gal beta 1,3Gal beta 1,4Xyl beta 1-O-serine). We have investigated the role of aspartate residues Asp194-Asp195-Asp196 corresponding to the glycosyltransferase DXD signature motif, in GlcAT-I function by UDP b...
Effects of divalent cations on the regulation of glucose transport and cAMP phosphodiesterase in isolated rat epididymal adipocytes were studied. EDTA (5 mM) moderately inhibited the binding of insulin to adipocytes in Krebs-Henseleit Hepes buffer. In the same buffer, A-23187 (an ionophore specific for divalent cations; 50 microM) plus EDTA (5 mM) almost completely blocked the insulin- or hydro...
The calcium (Ca2+) uniporter of mitochondria is a holocomplex consisting of the Ca2+-conducting channel, known as mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU), and several accessory and regulatory components. A previous electrophysiology study found that the uniporter has high Ca2+ selectivity and conductance and this depends critically on the conserved amino acid sequence motif, DXXE (Asp-X-X-Glu) of...
Tuberculosis, the second leading infectious disease killer after HIV, remains a top public health priority. The causative agent of tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), which can cause both acute and clinically latent infections, reprograms metabolism in response to the host niche. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (Pck) is the enzyme at the center of the phosphoenolpyruvate-pyruvate-...
Pertussis toxin (PT) inhibits invasiveness of T-cell hybridomas in vitro and metastasis formation in vivo. We present evidence for the hypothesis that PT interferes with functional activation of LFA-1. Invasion by TAM2D2 T-cell hybridoma cells of fibroblast monolayers was completely blocked by PT pretreatment, but the cells regained invasiveness in the presence of Mn2+, which activates LFA-1. T...
Introduction Olfactory stimuli activate different combinations of olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) in the olfactory epithelium. Since OSNs expressing the same odorant receptor (OR) project axons to the main olfactory bulb (MOB) and innervate the same set of glomeruli in a stereotypic fashion, the activation of OSNs elicited by odorants is transformed to a spatial pattern in the MOB, i.e., an od...
We have investigated effects of neuronal differentiation on hormone-induced Ca2+ entry. Fura-2 fluorescence measurements of undifferentiated SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, stimulated with methacholine, revealed the presence of voltage-operated Ca2+-permeable, Mn2+-impermeable entry pathways, and at least two voltage-independent Ca2+- and Mn2+-permeable entry pathways, all of which apparently cont...
We compared serum lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations in a randomly selected subsample (n = 406) population of children (ages 5 to 17 years), as measured by the heparin-Ca2+ and the heparin-Mn2+ precipitation methods. Statistical analysis showed significant differences between results by these methods, especially in values for VLDL- and HDL-cholesterol (mean difference: VLDL-cholesterol, -61...
