Ca 2+ mobilization induced by ATP, isoproterenol and the Ca 2+ -ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin in the human submandibular duct cell line A253 was investigated using the Ca 2+ -sensitive fluorescent indicator fura-2. ATP and isoproterenol increased cytosolic free Ca 2+ ([Ca 2+ ] i ) and subsequent exp

The effects of protein kinase C (PKC) activation and inhibition on the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP 3 ) and cytosolic Ca 2ϩ ([Ca 2ϩ ] i ) responses of rat submandibular acinar cells were investigated. IP 3 formation in response to acetylcholine (ACh) was not affected by the PKC activator phorbol
## Abstract Modulation of the Ca^2+^ sensitivity and cooperativity of secretion is an important means of regulating neurotransmission and hormone secretion. Employing high‐time resolution measurement of membrane capacitance (Cm) stimulated by step‐like or ramp [Ca^2+^]~i~ elevation, we have identif
