Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium-induced calcium release in cerebellar purkinje cells
TL;DR: The results indicate an important contribution of Ca(2+)-induced Ca2+ release to Ca2- signals of Purkinje cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sodium/Calcium Exchanger: Influence of Metabolic Regulation on Ion Carrier Interactions
Reinaldo DiPolo,Luis Beaugé +1 more
TL;DR: This review emphasizes the interrelationships between ionic and metabolic modulations of Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange, focusing mainly in two preparations where most of the studies have been carried out: the mammalian heart and the squid giant axon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium influx in internally dialyzed squid giant axons.
TL;DR: Under the above standard conditions, 50-60% of the total Ca influx was found to be insensitive to Nai+, Cai++, and ATP, sensitive to membrane potential, and partially inhibited by external Co++.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intracellular calcium clearance in Purkinje cell somata from rat cerebellar slices
TL;DR: The mechanisms governing the return of intracellular calcium (Ca2+i) to baseline levels following depolarization‐evoked [ Ca2+]i rises were investigated in Purkinje cell somata using tight‐seal whole‐cell recordings and fura‐2 microfluorometry to assess the relative contribution of the clearance systems characterized in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the reverse Na/Ca exchange in squid axons and its modulation by Cai and ATP. Cai-dependent Nai/Cao and Nai/Nao exchange modes.
Reinaldo DiPolo,L Beaugé +1 more
TL;DR: These experiments demonstrate that the Cai-activated Na/Na exchange is a mode of operation of the Na/Ca exchange mechanism that substantially contributes to Na movement during the activation of theNa/Ca antiporter.
