Abstract excerpt
We have previously reported that extracellular ATP causes a transient rise in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in cultured Schwann cells derived from adult animals [Ansselin A. D. et al. (1994) Int. J. Neurosci. 74, 148]. In this study, the receptor mediating this response has been characterized. Established adult rat and rabbit Schwann cell cultures were loaded with fura-2 (acetoxymethyl ester, 10...
