Pretreatment with apoaequorin protects hippocampal CA1 neurons from oxygen-glucose deprivation.
Ischemic stroke affects ∼795,000 people each year in the U.S., which results in an estimated annual cost of $73.7 billion. Calcium is pivotal in a variety of neuronal signaling cascades, however, during ischemia, excess calcium influx can trigger ...

Non-invasive in vivo imaging of calcium signaling in mice. [PDF]
Rapid and transient elevations of Ca(2+) within cellular microdomains play a critical role in the regulation of many signal transduction pathways. Described here is a genetic approach for non-invasive detection of localized Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)])

Recombinant apoaequorin expressed in the periplasmic space of Escherichia coli cells was regenerated into aequorin and extracted from the cells, simultaneously, using a buffer that contained coelenterazine. Due to the mild extraction conditions, the impurities in the extract were minimal.

Summary Calcium (Ca2+) signaling is integral to nearly all aspects of plant biology, including development and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. It operates through two main layers: the generation of Ca2+ signals and their decoding by Ca2+‐binding proteins, which act early in diverse signaling pathways. The system exhibits remarkable robustness

A new short-term toxicity assay using
Background Most currently available short-term toxicity assays are based on bacterial cells. Therefore there is a need for novel eukaryotic microbial bioassays that will be relevant to higher eukaryotes such as animals and plants.

Imaging of Molecular and Developmental Responses to Abiotic Stresses in Reproductive Tissues
ABSTRACT Abiotic stresses, such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures, have profound effects on plant reproduction, often leading to reduced fertility and yield. Reproduction in plants involves complex interactions between diverse cells, necessitating spatiotemporal resolution to understand how stress impacts each component of this intricate ...

ABSTRACT Chitin triggers localised and systemic plant immune responses, making it a promising treatment for sustainable disease resistance. However, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying chitin‐induced systemic effects in plants remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of soil amendment with crab chitin flakes (hereafter chitin)

Capsaicin Is a Negative Allosteric Modulator of the 5-HT3 Receptor
In this study, effects of capsaicin, an active ingredient of the capsicum plant, were investigated on human 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 (5-HT3) receptors.
