We examined cytosolic concentration of Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in canine airway smooth muscle using fura 2 fluorimetry (global changes in [Ca2+]i), membrane currents (subsarcolemmal [Ca2+]i), and contractions (deep cytosolic [Ca2+]i). Acetylcholine (10(-4) M) elicited fluorimetric, electrophysiological, and mechanical responses. Caffeine (5

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cytosolic Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](cyt)) and hence in insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in both the uptake and release of Ca(2+) from the ER

1. Recently, 4-chloro-3-ethyl phenol (CEP) has been shown to cause the release of internally stored Ca2+ apparently through ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ channels, in fractionated skeletal muscle terminal cisternae and in a variety of non-excitable cell types. Its action on smooth muscle

Depletion of the Ca(2+) store by ryanodine receptor (RyR) agonists induces store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE). 4-Chloro-3-ethylphenol (4-CEP) and 4-chloro-m-cresol (4-CmC) are RyR agonists commonly used as research tools and diagnostic reagents for malignant hyperthermia. Here, we investigated the effects of

The in vitro contracture test with halothane and caffeine is the current gold standard for diagnosis of malignant hyperthermia. This test has a sensitivity of 99.0% but a specificity of only 93.6%. Therefore, an alternative drug is desirable which distinguishes
