The Effect of Calcium Ionophores on Fragmented Sarcoplasmic Reticulum [PDF]
The Journal of General Physiology, 1972 X-537 A and A 23187, two antibiotics which form liphophilic complexes with divalent cations, function as ionophores in vesicular fragments of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Addition of either ionophore to SR preloaded with calcium in the presence of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), causes rapid release of calcium. Furthermore, net calcium accumulation by SR

Calcium ionophore and acetylcholine dilate arterioles on the mouse brain by different mechanisms. [PDF]
, 1989 Pial arterioles on the surface of the mouse brain were observed in vivo under a chamber with a glass window. When placed under the window, calcium ionophore, acetylcholine, and previously acidified sodium nitrite each dilated the arterioles.

Transport Properties of the Calcium Ionophore ETH-129 [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2001 The transport mechanism and specificities of ionophore ETH-29 have been investigated in a highly defined phospholipid vesicle system, with the goal of facilitating the application of this compound to biological problems. ETH-129 transports Ca(2+) via an electrogenic mechanism, in contrast to A23187 and ionomycin, which function in a charge neutral ...
