General description

2,5-Di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DTBBQ) is an 2,5-disubstituted quinone. It is an antibacterial compound. It has been isolated from marine Streptomyces sp. VITVSK1.[1] Pressure dependance on the intramolecular and intermolecular migration rates of Na+ and K+ in a 2,5-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone ion pair have been evaluated by using a high-pressure EPR technique.[2]

Depletion of intracellular calcium stores induces transmembrane Ca2+ influx. We studied Ca(2+)- and Ba(2+)-permeable ion channels in A431 cells after store depletion by dialysis of the cytosol with 10 mM BAPTA solution. Cell-attached patches of cells held at low (0.5

Previous studies have demonstrated in single rat parotid acinar cells that the microsomal Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin mobilizes Ca2+ specifically from the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-sensitive Ca2+ store, activates plasma membrane Ca2+ permeability, and induces intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) oscillations that are

Continuous superfusion of rat glioma cells with medium containing bradykinin (from 0.2 nM) induced a transient hyperpolarization followed by regular hyperpolarizing oscillations of the membrane potential. Similar repetitive hyperpolarizing oscillations were caused by extracellularly applied bradykinin or muscarine or by

The mechanisms of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release in pacemaker cells from the sinus venosus of the cane toad (Bufo marinus) were studied. Single, isolated cells were voltage clamped using a nystatin-perforated patch. Ionic currents and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i)

We have investigated the role of the intracellular Ca2+ pool in regulating Ca2+ entry into vascular endothelial cells. The intracellular Ca2+ pool was mobilized using either thapsigargin (TG) or 2',5'-di(tert-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone (BHQ), inhibitors of the endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase).
