Perturbation of cellular thiol homeostasis occurs during the early phase of oxidative cell injury in isolated hepatocytes. This perturbation, involves depletion of soluble and protein-bound thiols, and is associated with altered intracellular calcium (Ca") homeostasis resulting from inhibition of ma

The calcium fluorescent probe fura2 was used to measure concentration of free calcium in the cytosol of isolated rat hepatocytes in suspension. The resting level in untreated hepatocytes was 121 nM. On addition of CCl4 at a concentration of 0.5 mM, cytosolic free calcium rose sharply and reached a s
Mutations in the presenilin-1 (PS-1) gene are responsible for many cases of autosomal dominant earlyonset inherited Alzheimer's disease (AD). PS-1 is expressed in neurons where it is localized primarily to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER); the normal function of PS-1 and its pathogenic mechanism in AD
## Abstract Although several studies have shown that an induction of insulinβlike growth factor (IGF) components occurs during hyperoxiaβmediated lung injury, the role of these components in tissue repair is not well known. The present study aimed to elucidate the role of IGF system components in n
We have determined the localization of Ca v 1.2 (L-Type) Ca 2Ο© channels in the cells and nerve fibers in molars of normal or injured rats. We observed high levels of immunostaining of L-type Ca 2Ο© channels in odontoblast cell bodies and their processes, in fibroblast cell bodies and in Schwann cells
