豚鼠心肌α-肾上腺素受体反应的可能机制——增强细胞外钙离子内流

同时记录豚鼠心室肌细胞动作电位、零期最大去极化速率和心肌条的收缩幅度,观察了α-肾上腺素受体激动剂或增加细胞外钙离子浓度([Ca~(2 )]_0)的作用,以及在肾上腺素受体或钙通道阻断剂存在下这些作用的变化,试图分析α-受体与钙通道的可能关系。我们看到甲氧胺与增加[Ca~(2 )]_0都可使动作电位峰值增加、平台期电位高抬、收缩幅度增高,甲氧胺的效应可被戊脉胺阻断,而增加[Ca~(2 )]_0的效应可被酚妥拉明阻断。酚妥拉明同戊脉安两者的效应有近似之处,心得安对甲氧胺和增加[Ca~(2 )]_0效应无显著影响。由此认为:心肌α-肾上腺素受体的电生理效应与缓慢正性变力作用很可能是通过激活钙通道,增加细胞外钙离子的慢内流来实现的。

The effect of external Ca^2＋ and Ca^2＋—channel modulators on red—light—induced swelling of protoplasts of Phaseolus radiatus L.

Red-light-induced swelling of the protoplasts isolated from hypocotyl of etiolated mung bean(Phaseolus radiatusL.)was observed only when Ca^2 ions were present in the medium.The optimal CaCl2 concentration was 250μM,Swlling response declined when Ca^2 was supplied into the medium after red light irradiation.The Ca^2 -chelator EGTA eliminated the red-light-induced swelling and 45Ca^2 accumulation in the protoplasts.In conltrast,A23187,a Ca^2 -ionophore,could mimic the effect of red light in darkness.These results indicate that Ca^2 may play a role in light signal transduction.In addition,swelling response was prevented by TFP and CPZ(both are CaM antagonists),implying the involvement of CaM in red-light-induced and Ca^2 -dependent protoplast swelling.     

A Putative Calcium-Permeable Cyclic Nucleotide-Gated Channel, CNGC18, Regulates Polarized Pollen Tube Growth

A tip-focused Ca^2＋ gradient is tightly coupled to polarized pollen tube growth, and tip-localized influxes of extracellular Ca^2＋ are required for this process. However the molecular identity and regulation of the potential Ca^2＋ channels remains elusive. The present study has implicated CNGC18 （cyclic nucleotide-gated channel 18） in polarized pollen tube growth, because its overexpression induced wider and shorter pollen tubes. Moreover, CNGC18 overexpression induced depolarization of pollen tube growth was suppressed by lower extracellular calcium （[Ca^2＋]ex）. CNGC18-yellow fluorescence protein （YFP） was preferentially localized to the apparent post-Golgi vesicles and the plasma membrane （PM） in the apex of pollen tubes. The PM localization was affected by tip-localized ROP1 signaling. Expression of wild type ROP1 or an active form of ROP1 enhanced CNGC18-YFP localization to the apical region of the PM, whereas expression of RopGAP1 （a ROP1 deactivator） blocked the PM localization. These results support a role for PM-Iocalized CNGC18 in the regulation of polarized pollen tube growth through its potential function in the modulation of calcium influxes.
