Epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC)-mediated Na(+) absorption and BK channel-mediated K(+) secretion in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) are modulated by flow, the latter requiring an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)), microtubule integrity, and exocytic insertion of preformed channels into
Detection of viable pathogenic bacteria has widespread application in food safety and human health. Antibody-based methods require a growth step which limits time-to-results performance. In this study, we use a mass-change sensitive cantilever biosensor and a probe, 2',7'-bis-(2-carboxyethyl)-5-(and-6)-carboxyfluorescein acetoxymethyl ester

Multidrug resistance (MDR)-type transporters mediate the active extrusion of structurally and functionally dissimilar compounds from the cells, thereby rendering cells resistant to a range of drugs. The ydaG and ydbA genes of Lactococcus lactis encode two ATP-binding cassette half-transporters, which
Endothelin, a 21-amino acid vasoactive peptide, is among the most potent positively inotropic agents yet described in mammalian heart. Having demonstrated that endothelin's inotropic effect is due, in part, to an apparent sensitization of cardiac myofilaments to intracellular calcium, we

Changes in intracellular pH (pH(i)) and cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](c)) caused by the glutamate agonist domoate (DOM) were studied in single cultured mouse cerebellar granule cells (CGC) by using the fluorescent probes 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein acetoxymethyl ester (BCECF-AM) and simultaneous evaluation of
