We investigate how the introduction of cells oscillating periodically affects the behaviour of a suspension of Dictyostelium discoideum amoebae undergoing chaotic oscillations of cyclic AMP. The analysis of a model indicates that a tiny proportion of periodic cells suffices to transform chaos into periodic oscillations in such suspensions.

AbstractA persistent basal tone in the internal anal sphincter (IAS) is essential for keeping the anal canal closed and fecal continence; its inhibition via the rectoanal inhibitory reflex (RAIR) is required for successful defecation. However, cellular signals underlying the IAS basal tone remain enigmatic.

Neuron, 1991
Intercellular Ca2+ signaling in primary cultures of glial cells was investigated with digital fluorescence video imaging. Mechanical stimulation of a single cell induced a wave of increased [Ca2+]i that was communicated to surrounding cells. This was followed by asynchronous Ca2+ oscillations in some cells.

On the effect of circadian oscillations on biochemical cell signaling by NF−κB
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2013We report the results of a numerical investigation of a mathematical model for NF-κB oscillations, described by a set of ordinary nonlinear differential equations, when perturbed by a circadian oscillation. The main result is that a circadian rhythm, even when it represents a weak perturbation, enhances the signaling capabilities of NF-κB oscillations.

ABSTRACT Cells of Dictyostelium discoideum known to release cyclic AMP (cAMP) rhythmically in the form of pulses, change with the same period of about 8 min the pH of their medium. The pH is used here as an indicator to investigate the effect of externally added cAMP pulses on the oscillations.

Role of mitochondria in Ca2+ oscillations and shape of Ca2+ signals in pancreatic acinar cells
Biochemical Pharmacology, 2002We studied the role of mitochondria in Ca(2+) signals in fura-2 loaded exocrine pancreatic acinar cells. Mitochondrial depolarization in response to carbonylcyanide-p-tryfluoromethoxyphenyl hydrazone or rotenone (assessed by confocal microscopy using rhodamine-123) induced a partial but statistically significant reduction in the decay of Ca(2+) signals

Receptor-activated cytoplasmic calcium (Ca2+) oscillations have been investigated in single pancreatic acinar cells by microfluorimetry (Fura-2 as indicator). At submaximal concentrations of the agonists acetylcholine (ACh) and cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8), both give rise to oscillatory changes in the cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2 ...

Isopeptides of the newly discovered peptide family, endothelins (ET), caused a concentration-dependent increase in intracellular free [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) in human glomerular mesangial cells. ET isopeptides and sarafotoxin S6b caused transient and sustained [Ca2+]i waveforms which resulted from mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ stores and from Ca2+ influx

Receptor-activated cytoplasmic Ca2+ oscillations have been investigated using both single cell microfluorometry and voltage-clamp recording of Ca(2+)-dependent Cl- current in single internally perfused acinar cells. In these cells there is direct experimental evidence showing that the ACh-evoked [Ca2+]i fluctuations are due to an inositol trisphosphate-
