Research Abstract |
We found that Epo increased the intracellular Ca^<2+> concentration ([Ca^<2+>]I) in primary cortical cultures in the normal condition but decreased the elevated [Ca^<2+>]i in the excitotoxic condition. The Epo-induced increase involved Ca^<2+> influx through voltage-dependent Ca channels, whereas the Epo-induced decrease involved PI3 kinase-dependent activation of BK type Ca-activated K channels, at least in part. The pathophysiological significance of our findings needs to be investigated in further studies.
