Intracellular calcium waves were observed in cultured human myometrium using confocal laser scanning microscopy in the epifluorescence mode. Intracellular calcium waves were observed following stimulation of the cells with 10 mU ml-1 oxytocin in physiological bathing solution, or following substitut

Two main characteristics of astrocytes are their elaborated intracellular calcium signaling and their high degree of intercellular communication mediated by gap junctional channels. In these cells a number of studies have contributed to demonstrate that the combination of these two properties provid
## Abstract The extracellular concentrations of Ca^2+^ and Mg^2+^ are well known to play important roles in the function of the central nervous system. We examined the effects of extracellular Ca^2+^ and Mg^2+^ on ATP release and intercellular signaling in astrocytes. The extent of propagation of i
