Research Abstract |
1. Imaging of Ca^<2+> waves induced by muscarinic receptor stimulation. The fura-2 loaded rat parotid acinar cells were stimulated with calbachol (CCh). The increase in was initiated in the apical pole of the acinar cells and then rapidly spread as a Ca^<2+> wave towards the basolateral region. 2. The Ca^<2+> wave in saponin-permeabilized parotid acinar cells evoked by flash photolysis of caged 1P3. The permeabilized acinar cells were labelled with the membrane-bound Ca^<2+> indicator Calcium Green C_<18> and stimulated by the photolysis of caged IP The Ca^<2+> release from intracellular stores started at the apical region and spread towards the basolateral region. 3. Imaging of C^<2+> release from intracellular Ca^<2+> stores in permeabilized parotid acinar cells. The Ca^<2+> release from intracellular Ca^<2+> stores was monitored using the fluorescent indicators Mag-fura-2 and Calcium Green C_<18> App1ication of IP_3 caused a rapid release of Ca^<2+>, but none of cyclic ADP-ribose, caffeine or ryanodine stimulated Ca^<2+> release. 4. Effect of isoproterenol on cytosolic Ca^<2+> distribution. Application of 1 muMisoproterenol, a concentration producing the maximum amylase release, did not cause any change in cytosolic Ca^<2+> distribution. 5. Effect of CCh on cytosolic CI distribution. CCh caused a rapid dcrease in cytosolic CF concentration. This change was corelated with the increase in [Ca^<2+>].
