Intracellular Ca2+ signals evoked by stimulation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in SH‐SY5Y cells: contribution of voltage‐operated Ca2+ channels and Ca2+ stores
Tóm tắt
Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) can regulate several neuronal processes through Ca2+‐dependent mechanisms. The versatility of nAChR‐mediated responses presumably reflects the spatial and temporal characteristics of local changes in intracellular Ca2+ arising from a variety of sources. The aim of this study was to analyse the components of nicotine‐evoked Ca2+ signals in SH‐SY5Y cells, by monitoring fluorescence changes in cells loaded with fluo‐3 AM. Nicotine (30 µ
