The beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol stimulates immunoreactive atrial natriuretic peptide (IR-ANP) secretion by superfused rat atria in vitro. beta-Adrenergic agonists alter the cellular handling of calcium, which culminates in a rise in the systolic calcium concentration. This is achieved by increasing calcium influx through voltage-dependent calcium channels and by increasing the storage...
Current responses to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) in layer V pyramidal neurons of the rat prefrontal cortex were potentiated by the P2 receptor agonists adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) and uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP). The failure of these nucleotides to induce inward current on fast local superfusion suggested the activation of P2Y rather than P2X receptors. The potentiation by ATP persisted i...
The hypothesis that the buffering of Ca(2+) by mitochondria could affect the Ca(2+)-dependent inhibition of voltage-activated Ca(2+) channels, (I(Ca)), was tested in voltage-clamped bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. The protonophore carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl-hydrazone (CCCP), the blocker of the Ca(2+) uniporter ruthenium red (RR), and a combination of oligomycin plus rotenone were used to ...
The neuropeptide galanin and its three receptor subtypes (GalR1-3) are expressed in the central amygdala (CeA), a brain region involved in stress- and anxiety-related behaviors, as well as alcohol dependence. Galanin also has been suggested to play a role in alcohol intake and alcohol dependence. We examined the effects of galanin in CeA slices from wild-type and knockout (KO) mice deficient of...
Long-lasting modifications of synaptic transmission can be induced in the amygdala by electrical stimulation as done in the long-term potentiation (LTP) model of learning and memory and the kindling model of epilepsy. The present study reports for the first time a long-lasting potentiation (LLP) of synaptic transmission that is induced pharmacologically by the activation of group III metabotrop...
Using K+-selective microelectrodes, [K+]o was measured in the subretinal space of the isolated retina of the toad, Bufo marinus. During maintained illumination, [K+]o fell to a minimum and then recovered to a steady level that was approximately 0.1 mM below its dark level. Spatial buffering of [K+]o by Müller (glial) cells could contribute to this reaccumulation of K+. However, superfusion with...
Prostacyclin (PGI2) and the PGE family alleviate myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and limit oxidative damage. The cardioprotective effects of PGI2 have been traditionally ascribed to activation of IP receptors. Recent advances in prostanoid research have revealed that PGI2 can bind not only to IP, but also to EP, receptors, suggesting cross talk between PGI2 and PGEs. The mechanism(s) whe...
The aim of the present study was to investigate beta-adrenergic receptor and angiotensin II (Ang II) receptor modulation of norepinephrine release in human atria. Slices of human atrial appendages were incubated with [3H]norepinephrine, superfused with Krebs-Henseleit solution, and electrically stimulated in superfusion chambers. Pretreatment of the tissue with 6-hydroxydopamine (1.2 mmol/L) be...
Alterations in the composition of the glycocalyx of venular endothelium in postcapillary venules (rat mesentery) were explored in models of inflammation and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Lectins were covalently linked to fluorescently labeled microspheres (0.1-microm diameter) or directly labeled with FITC. Adhesion of lectins specific for glucose and galactose residues of glycosaminoglycans (GA...
