Aluminium alters excitability by inhibiting calcium, sodium and potassium currents in bovine chromaffin cells
2023-01-25
Abstract excerpt
Aluminium (Al 3+ ) has long been related to neurotoxicity and neurological diseases. This study aims to describe the specific actions of this metal on cellular excitability and neurotransmitter release. Al 3+ reduced intracellular calcium concentrations around 25% and decreased catecholamine secretion in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC 50 of 89.1 μM. Al 3+ blocked calcium currents in a time- and concentrat...
