Dynamic Inositol Trisphosphate-mediated Calcium Signals within Astrocytic Endfeet Underlie Vasodilation of Cerebral Arterioles

Straub, Stephen V., Bonev, Adrian D., Wilkerson, M. Keith, Nelson, Mark T.

Active neurons communicate to intracerebral arterioles in part through an elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in astrocytes, leading to the generation of vasoactive signals involved...

Calcium Wave Propagation in Pancreatic Acinar Cells: Functional Interaction of Inositol 1,4,5-Trisphosphate Receptors, Ryanodine Receptors, and Mitochondria

Straub, Stephen V., Giovannucci, David R., Yule, David I.

In pancreatic acinar cells, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3)–dependent cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i) increases resulting from agonist stimulation are initiated in an apical “trigger zone,”...

Cytosolic Ca2+ and Ca2+-activated Cl− current dynamics: insights from two functionally distinct mouse exocrine cells

Giovannucci, David R, Bruce, Jason I. E, Straub, Stephen V, Arreola, Jorge, Sneyd, James, Shuttleworth, Trevor J, ...

The dynamics of Ca2+ release and Ca2+-activated Cl− currents in two related, but functionally distinct exocrine cells, were studied to gain insight into how the molecular specialization of Ca2+...
