Inactivation of Ca2(+)-induced Cl- currents was studied in Xenopus oocytes using the two-electrode voltage-clamp technique. In oocytes permeabilized to Ca2+ by treatment with the ionophore A23187, Ca2+ influx caused by the addition of 2.5-5 mM Ca2+ to the extracellular solution elicited Cl- currents

## Abstract Osteoclasts are specialized macrophage derivatives that secrete acid and proteinases to mobilize bone for mineral homeostasis, growth, and replacement or repair. Osteoclast differentiation generally requires the monocyte growth factor m‐CSF and the TNF‐family cytokine RANKL, although di
## Abstract Ca^2+^‐activated chloride channels were identified with whole‐cell patch‐clamp recording techniques in salamander retinal Müller cells. Cl(Ca) channels were activated by membrane depolarizations that elicited Ca^2+^ influx or the application of the Ca^2+^ ionophore, ionomycin. The Ca ch
