Hypotonic challenge induces transient swelling in glial cells, which is typically followed by a regulatory volume decrease (RVD). In contrast, lactic acidosis (lactacidosis) induces persistent cell swelling in astrocytes without an accompanying RVD. In the present study, we studied the mechanisms by

In single rat glioma cells, the signal transduction process activated by the UTP sensitive purinergic nucleotide receptor was studied by determining [Ca2+1, by Fura-2 fluorescence and measuring pH by BCECF fluorescence to elucidate the control of [Ca2+l, oscillations by intracellular pH. Addition of
The aim of the present study was to explore whether a change in membrane K+ conductance contributes to acidosis-induced swelling of cultured rat C6 glioma cells. Electrophysiological studies were performed using whole-cell and single-channel recordings in combination with cell volume measurements in
