Application

Indo 1, a fluorescent calcium chelator and indicator, is used to monitor cytoplasmic Ca2+ transients induced by various physiological and mechanical processes.

Other Notes

Fluorescent calcium chelator and indicator with an unusually large shift in fluorescence emission from 480 nm to 400 nm on binding of calcium. Useful for intracellular application

Nitric oxide (NO) generated by skeletal muscle is believed to regulate force production but how this is achieved remains poorly understood. In the present work we tested the effects of NO synthase (NOs) inhibitors on membrane current and intracellular calcium

Pulmonary veins (PVs) are the most important focus for generation of atrial fibrillation. The Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange (NCX) current is important in PV electrical activity and cardiac glycosides-induced arrhythmias. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether KB-R7943, a NCX

Mitochondria dynamically buffer cytosolic Ca(2+) in cardiac ventricular cells and this affects the Ca(2+) load of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). In sinoatrial-node cells (SANC) the SR generates periodic local, subsarcolemmal Ca(2+) releases (LCRs) that depend upon the SR load and

Heat stress-induced responses change the ionic currents and calcium homeostasis. However, the molecular insights into the heat stress responses on calcium homeostasis remain unclear. The purposes of this study were to examine the mechanisms of heat stress responses on calcium

The aim of this study was to further characterize the reduction of myofibrillar Ca2+ sensitivity in mouse muscle which has been observed after fatigue at 37 degrees C. Muscle bundles and single fibres were isolated from mouse flexor digitorum brevis
