The cAMP-dependent protein kinase mediates the expression of AChE in chick myotubes

open access: yesNeuroReport, 2000
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide synthesized by motor neurons, stimulates the expression of AChR and AChE at the vertebrate neuromuscular junctions. The signaling mechanism of CGRP-induced AChE expression in muscle was determined both in vitro and in vivo. In cultured chick myotubes, the intracellular cAMP-dependent protein kinase

The growth of muscle nerves in relation to the formation of primary myotubes in the developing chick forelimb

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1986
AbstractA study has been made of the development of muscle nerves to primary myotube clusters destined to become the flexor carpi ulnaris (fcu) and flexordigitorum profundus (fdp) muscles in the avian forelimb. Myotubes and nerves were identified by immunofluorescent techniques using antibodies to the heavy and light subunits of myosin and ...

A monoclonal antibody which binds to the surface of chick brain cells and myotubes: Cell selectivity and properties of the antigen

open access: yesDevelopmental Brain Research, 1982
A monoclonal antibody has been obtained which binds to the cell surface of cultured chick myotubes and retinal and tectal neurons but not fibroblasts, myoblasts and embryonic liver cells.

Caffeine contracture in the cultured chick myotube

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 1986
AbstractA possible function of Ca store site in cultured chick myotubes was examined by recording contraction of the myotube with special reference to the effect of caffeine. Caffeine at low concentrations (below 1 mM), applied focally on the myotube through a micropipette with a pressure pulse, elicited focal contraction without membrane potential ...

Evidence for a functional role of acetylcholinesterase in cultured chick myotubes

Brain Research, 1983
This study was undertaken in order to assess the functional role of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in cultures of chick skeletal muscle cells. Cultures of skeletal myotubes were prepared by mechanical dissociation of limb muscle removed from 11-day-old chick embryos and plating at a concentration of 0.8 X 10(6) cells/ml.

Microwave effects on acetylcholine‐induced channels in cultured chick myotubes

Bioelectromagnetics, 1988
AbstractThe behavior of cultured myotubes from chick embryos exposed to microwaves has been experimentally analyzed. Recordings of acetylcholine‐induced currents have been obtained via patch‐clamp techniques using both cell‐attached (single‐channel current recording) and whole‐cell (total current recording) configurations.

Block of single acetylcholine-activated channels in chick myotubes by alkylguanidines

Pfl�gers Archiv European Journal of Physiology, 1986
The mechanism of block of single acetylcholine-activated channels by alkylguanidines was studied by means of the gigaohm seal, patch clamp technique on chick myotubes. The single channel current-voltage relationship in symmetrical Cs solutions was linear over membrane potentials from -100 mV to +100 mV with the reversal potential close to 0 mV.

Trifluoperazine Stimulates Acetylcholine Receptor Synthesis in Cultured Chick Myotubes

Journal of Neurochemistry, 1984
Abstract: Acetylcholine receptor appearance rate in the presence of the phenothiazines trifluoperazine and chlorpromazine was measured in cultured embryonic chick myotubes by means of 125I‐α‐bungarotoxin. At drug concentrations of 5 to 10 × 10−6M, receptor appearance rate was significantly enhanced while receptor half‐life, cellular protein, net ...

[ 3 H]-Nitrendipine Binding in Chick Myotubes Developing in Culture

Pharmacology, 2008
Binding studies with the [3H]-nitrendipine were performed in homogenates of chick skeletal myotubes developing in culture. The specific binding data suggested two classes of binding sites with high and low affinities for nitrendipine. No significant changes in the dissociation constants of both high- and low-affinity sites could be detected over the ...
