Intracellular S1P generation is essential for S1P-induced motility of human lung endothelial cells : role of sphingosine kinase 1 and S1P lyase [PDF]
Earlier we have shown that extracellular sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) induces migration of human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAECs) through the activation of S1P(1) receptor, PKCε, and PLD2-PKCζ-Rac1 signaling cascade.

Myxobacteria-Derived Outer Membrane Vesicles: Potential Applicability Against Intracellular Infections [PDF]
In 2019, it was estimated that 2.5 million people die from lower tract respiratory infections annually. One of the main causes of these infections is Staphylococcus aureus, a bacterium that can invade and survive within mammalian cells. S.

An intracellular analysis of gamma-aminobutyric-acid-associated ion movements in rat sympathetic neurones [PDF]
Double-barrelled ion-sensitive micro-electrodes were used to measure the changes of the intracellular activities of Cl-, K+, and Na+ (aiCl, aiK, aiNa) in neurones of isolated rat sympathetic ganglia during the action of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA ...

Changes in intracellular ion activities induced by adrenaline in human and rat skeletal muscle [PDF]
To study the stimulating effect of adrenaline (ADR) on active Na+/K+ transport we used double-barrelled ion-sensitive micro-electrodes to measure the activities of extracellular K+ (aKe) and intracellular Na+ (aNai) in isolated preparations of rat soleus

Carbachol increases intracellular free calcium concentrations in human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]
We investigated whether the stimulation of human granulosa-lutein cells with muscarinic and nicotinic receptor agonists can cause increases in intracellular free calcium (Ca2+), using Fura-2 microfluorimetry.

Intracellular Injection of Brain Extracts from Alzheimer’s Disease Patients Triggers Unregulated Ca2+ Release from Intracellular Stores That Hinders Cellular Bioenergetics [PDF]
Strong evidence indicates that amyloid beta (Aβ) inflicts its toxicity in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) by promoting uncontrolled elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ in neurons. We have previously shown that synthetic Aβ42 oligomers stimulate abnormal

Metabolic responses of primary and transformed cells to intracellular Listeria monocytogenes. [PDF]
The metabolic response of host cells, in particular of primary mammalian cells, to bacterial infections is poorly understood. Here, we compare the carbon metabolism of primary mouse macrophages and of established J774A.1 cells upon Listeria monocytogenes

Effect of oxytocin on free intracellular Ca2+ levels and progesterone release by human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]
Oxytocin and its receptor are found in the corpus luteum in a variety of species, including the human. In the present study we used fura-2 microfluorimetry to investigate whether activation of the oxytocin receptor of cultured human granulosa-lutein ...

Changes of intracellular sodium and potassium ion concentrations in frog spinal motoneurons induced by repetitive synaptic stimulation [PDF]
A post-tetanic membrane hyperpolarization following repetitive neuronal activity is a commonly observed phenomenon in the isolated frog spinal cord as well as in neurons of other nervous tissues.

Molecular Characterization of a Novel Intracellular ADP-Ribosyl Cyclase [PDF]
Background. ADP-ribosyl cyclases are remarkable enzymes capable of catalyzing multiple reactions including the synthesis of the novel and potent intracellular calcium mobilizing messengers, cyclic ADP-ribose and NAADP.
