Nimodipine promotes neurite outgrowth and protects against neurotoxicity in PC12 cells [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2021 Objective(s): Nimodipine is an L-type voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) antagonist. However, the actions of nimodipine except calcium blocking are poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the effect of nimodipine on neurite outgrowth and

Artificial Egg Activation Using Calcium Ionophore
Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2021 AbstractArtificial oocyte activation, most commonly using calcium ionophore, is a treatment add-on utilized to avoid recurrence of abnormally low or total failed fertilization following in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection. It aims to modify defective physiological processes, specifically calcium-mediated cell signaling that are ...

Mitogenic Properties of a Calcium Ionophore, A23187 [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1974 A23187 is a carboxylic antibiotic that selectively transfers calcium, magnesium, and other divalent cations across biologic membranes. This ionophore was found to produce morphologic blast transformation, DNA synthesis, and mitosis in human lymphocytes. Several hours of ionophore-cell contact were necessary to produce optimal mitogenesis.
