Accumulation of calcium in degenerating photoreceptors of several Drosophila mutants.

Visual neuroscience - 1 Jan 2000

Sahly I, Schröder W H, Zierold K, Minke B

Abstract excerpt

The hypothesis that a large, possibly toxic, increase in cellular calcium accompanies photoreceptor cell degeneration in several different Drosophila mutants was tested. The calcium content of wild type and mutant photoreceptors of Drosophila was measured using rapid freezing of the eyes and energy-dispersive x-ray analysis (e.d.x.) of cryosections and semithin sections of cryosubstituted material. Light- and...
