Research Abstract |
Patch-clamp and fluorescence measurements of cytoplasmic Ca2+concentration([Ca2+] i) were performed to directly detect extracellular Ca2+entry into cultured parathyroid cells from patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism. Cells loaded with fluo-3 AM or fluo-4 AM showed a transient increase in fluorescence(Ca2+transient) following 10 s exposure to 150 mM K+solution in the presence of mM external Ca2+. The Ca2+transient was completely inactivated after 30-40 s exposure to the high K+solution, was reduced by dihydropyridine antagonists, and enhanced by FPL-64176, an L-type Ca2+-channel agonist.
