Glucose stimulation of insulin release involves metabolism of the sugar and elevation of cytoplasmic calcium (Ca2+i) in pancreatic B-cells. We compared the dynamic changes of metabolism (fluorescence of endogenous reduced pyridine nucleotides, NAD(P)H), membrane potential (intracellular microelectrodes), and Ca2+i (fura-2 technique), in intact mouse islets. Glucose (15 mM) sequentially triggered an increase in NAD(P)H fluorescence, a depolarization with electrical activity, and a rise in Ca2+i. The change in NAD(P)H was monophasic and regular, whereas the changes in membrane potential and Ca2+i were multiphasic, with steady-state regular oscillations of similar average frequencies (about 2.2/min). Digital image analysis revealed that Ca2+i oscillations were synchronous in all regions of the islets. Omission of extracellular Ca2+ abolished the rise in Ca2+i but not the increase in NAD(P)H. Both electrical and Ca2+i oscillations disappeared in low external Ca2+ (1 mM), and became larger but slower in high Ca2+ (10 mM). Sustained depolarization (by tolbutamide, arginine, or high K+) and hyperpolarization (by diazoxide) of B-cells caused sustained increases and decreases of Ca2+i, respectively. In conclusion, the changes in membrane potential induced by various secretagogues trigger synchronous changes in Ca2+i in all B-cells of the islets. The oscillatory pattern of the electrical and Ca2+i responses induced by glucose is not accompanied by and thus probably not due to similar oscillations of metabolism. 相似文献

This paper reports an investigation on the relationship between the proton electrochemical gradient (delta mu H+) and the cyclosporin A-sensitive permeability transition pore (PTP) in rat liver mitochondria. Using the SH group cross-linker phenylarsine oxide as the inducer, we show that both matrix pH and the membrane potential can modulate the process of PTP induction independently of Ca2+. We find that membrane depolarization induces the PTP per se when pHi is above 7.0, while at acidic matrix pH values PTP induction is effectively prevented. Since Ca2+ uptake leads to major modifications of the delta mu H+ (i.e. matrix alkalinization and membrane depolarization), we have explored the possibility that the Ca(2+)-induced changes of the delta mu H+ may contribute to PTP induction by Ca2+. Our data in mitochondria treated with Ca2+ plus N-ethylmaleimide and Ca2+ plus phosphate show that membrane depolarization is a powerful inducer of the PTP. Taken together, our observations indicate that the PTP can be controlled directly by the delta mu H+ both in the absence and presence of Ca2+, and suggest that a collapse of the membrane potential may be the cause rather than the consequence of PTP induction under many experimental conditions. Thus, many inducers may converge on dissipation of the membrane potential component of the delta mu H+ by a variety of mechanisms. 相似文献

The effect of membrane potential, acetylcholine, carbachol and atropine on the myometrium plasmatic membrane Ca2+/H+ exchange was estimated. The change of artificially directed membrane potential from -40 to +20 mV was defined to provide for increasing the input of Ca2+ into vesicules and output of H+ from them in their concentration gradients. The similar changes of cations in membranes were registered under acetylcholine (10(-8)-10(-4) M) and carbachol (0.1 mM) action. Atropine displayed itself as decreasing the cholinomimetics effect to the tested ions transport. The exogenous 0.5 mM Ca2+ free of directed membrane potential as well stimulated the output of protons from vesicles. The supposition was made regarding H output strengthening and pH possible local increase of cytoplasm under the smooth cells activation by the membrane potential and acetylcholine. 相似文献

Intracellular Ca and cell injury: A paradoxical role of Ca in complement membrane attack 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Disturbances in intracellular Ca2+ are known to be important in cell injury caused by a wide range of toxic factors. The complement system is a major effector of immune damage in vivo, and is known to be involved in the pathogenesis of many immune diseases. We present here evidence that the potentially lethal membrane attack complex of complement causes a rapid increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration before any other detectable biochemical changes in the cell. In nucleated cells the increased intracellular free Ca2+ concentration initially stimulates recovery processes, allowing the cell to escape mild complement attack and also activates the production of inflammatory mediators, which may amplify an ongoing inflammatory response. More severe complement membrane attack causes a more rapid rise in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration allowing a threshold to be breached above which recovery processes are overwhelmed, and cell death occurs. The importance of non-lytic effects and recovery processes mediated by Ca2+, and the molecular basis of these effects are discussed, and the hypothesis proposed that the cell-injuring effects of other "pore-forming" toxins are also caused by increases in intracellular free Ca2+. 相似文献

(1) It is shown that the rate of calcium extrusion from intact human red cells is faster at a membrane potential of approximately +50 mV (inside) than at approximately -50 mV. (2) The positive potential applied was the chloride potential of KCl cells in a K-gluconate medium when the Ca2+ sensitive K+ channel was blocked by 0.3mM quinidine. The negative potential resulted from the high K+ permeability in Ca2+ loaded cells (the cells were loaded to a Ca2+ activity in the cell water of about 50 microM). (3) It is further demonstrated that the Ca2+ affinity of the pump ATPase is decreased both at the internal (high affinity) and external (low affinity) site by increasing the proton concentration. Acidification thus inhibits internally and stimulates externally. (4) An indirect effect of the membrane potential on the pump activity via the accompanying pH shifts on either side of the membrane could be ruled out by choosing Ca2+ concentrations which are fully activating at the internal Ca2+ binding site at pH 6.5 and not yet inhibitory at the external Ca2+ binding site at pH 8. (5) The result is compatible with the assumption that the human red cell Ca-pump is exchanging Ca2+ for protons, yet is electrogenic by virtue of a stoichiometry of 1H+:1Ca2+ for this exchange. 相似文献

Apical membrane H+ extrusion in the renal outer medullary collecting duct, inner stripe, is mediated by a Na(+)-independent H+ pump. To examine the regulation of this transporter, cell pH and cell Ca2+ were measured microfluorometrically in in vitro perfused tubules using 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein and fura-2, respectively. Apical membrane H+ pump activity, assayed as cell pH recovery from a series of acid loads (NH3/NH+4 prepulse) in the total absence of ambient Na+, initially occurred at a slow rate (0.06 +/- 0.02 pH units/min), which was not sufficient to account for physiologic rates of H+ extrusion. Over 15-20 min after the initial acid load, the rate of Na(+)-independent cell pH recovery increased to 0.63 +/- 0.09 pH units/min, associated with a steady-state cell pH greater than the initial pre-acid load cell pH. This pattern suggested an initial suppression followed by a delayed activation of the apical membrane H+ pump. Replacement of peritubular Na+ with choline or N-methyl-D-glucosamine resulted in an initial spike increase in cell Ca2+ followed by a sustained increase in cell Ca2+. The initial rate of Na(+)-independent cell pH recovery could be increased by elimination of the Na+ removal-induced sustained cell Ca2+ elevation by: (a) performing studies in the presence of 135 mM peritubular Na+ (1 mM peritubular amiloride used to inhibit basolateral membrane Na+/H+ antiport); (b) clamping cell Ca2+ low with dimethyl-BAPTA, an intracellular Ca2+ chelating agent; or (c) removal of extracellular Ca2+. Cell acidification induced a spike increase in cell Ca2+. The late acceleration of Na(+)-independent cell pH recovery was independent of Na+ removal and of the method used to acidify the cell, but was eliminated by prevention of the cell Ca2+ spike and markedly delayed by the microfilament-disrupting agent, cytochalasin B. This study demonstrates that peritubular Na+ removal results in a sustained elevation in cell Ca2+, which inhibits the apical membrane H+ pump. In addition, rapid cell acidification associated with a spike increase in cell Ca2+ leads to a delayed activation of the H+ pump. Thus, cell Ca2+ per se, or a Ca(2+)-activated pathway, can modulate H+ pump activity. 相似文献

Calcium dependence of bleb formation and cell death was evaluated in rat hepatocytes following ATP depletion by metabolic inhibition with KCN and iodoacetate ('chemical hypoxia'). Cytosolic free Ca2+ was measured in single cells by ratio imaging of Fura-2 fluorescence using multiparameter digitized video microscopy. Cells formed surface blebs within 10 to 20 minutes after chemical hypoxia and most cells lost viability within an hour. An increase of cytosolic free Ca2+ was not required for bleb formation to occur. One to a few minutes prior to the onset of cell death, free Ca2+ increased rapidly in high Ca2+ buffer (1.2 mM) but not in low Ca2+ buffer (less than 1 microM). In either buffer, the rate of cell killing was the same. As the onset of cell death was approached in both high and low Ca2+ buffers, Fura-2 began to leak from the cells at an accelerating rate indicating rapidly increasing plasma membrane permeability. In high Ca2+ buffer, cytosolic free Ca2+ increased in parallel with dye leakage. No regional changes in cytosolic free Ca2+ were observed during this metastable period of increased membrane permeability. In many experiments, actual rupture of cell surface blebs could be observed which led to micron-size discontinuities of the cell surface and cell death. We conclude that a metastable period characterized by increasing plasma membrane permeability marked the onset of cell death in cultured hepatocytes which culminated in rupture of a cell surface bleb. An increase of cytosolic free Ca2+ was not required for the metastable state to develop or cell death to occur. 相似文献

Measurements of cell volume changes, free cytosolic Ca2+ concentration [( Ca2+]i) with Fura 2 and cell membrane potential with 3,3'-dipropylthiodicarbocyanine iodide were used to study the effect of cell volume change on Ca2+ influx and the membrane potential of the osteoblastic osteosarcoma cell line, UMR-106-01. Swelling the cells by hypo-osmotic stress was followed by reduction in cell volume which was markedly impaired by removal of medium Ca2+. Accordingly, cell swelling resulted in [Ca2+]i increase only in the presence of medium Ca2+. The cell swelling-activated Ca2+ entry pathway was active at resting membrane potentials, and Ca2+ influx through this pathway markedly increased upon cell hyperpolarization. A linear relationship between Ca2+ entry and the potential across the plasma membrane was observed. Thus, the volume-activated Ca2+ permeating pathway in UMR-106-01 cells has conductive properties. These pathways do not spontaneously inactivate with time when the cells are not allowed to volume regulate. The pathway can be blocked by micromolar concentrations of nicardipine and La3+ but display very low sensitivity to diltiazem and verapamil. Activation of the volume-sensitive, Ca2+ permeating pathway was not dependent on an increase in [Ca2+]i. Likewise, activation of the pathway was independent of a change in membrane potential between -85 and -3 mV. The increase in [Ca2+]i resulted in hyperpolarization of the cells, probably due to activation of Ca2+-activated K+ channels. The volume-sensitive pathways were partially active under isotonic conditions. Their activity was inhibited by cell shrinkage and increased by cell swelling. The pathways were sensitive to small changes in cell volume, particularly around a medium osmolarity of 310 mosM. 相似文献

1. A method is described for establishing steady-state conditions of calcium transport across the inner membrane of rat liver mitochondria and for determining the current of Ca2+ flowing across the membrane, together with the Ca2+ electrochemical gradient across the native Ca2+ carrier. These parameters were used to quantify the apparent Ca2+ conductance of the native carrier. 2. At 23 degrees C and pH7.0, the apparent Ca2+ conductance of the carrier is close to 1 nmol of Ca2+-min-1-mg of protein-1 mV-1. Proton extrusion by the respiratory chain, rather than the Ca2+ carrier itself, may often be rate-limiting in studies of initial rates of Ca2+ uptake. 3. Under parallel conditions, the endogenous H+ conductance of the membrane is 0.3 nmol of H+-min-1-mg of protein-1-mV-1. 4. Ruthenium Red and La3+ both strongly inhibit the Ca2+ conductance of the carrier, but are without effect on the H+ conductance of the membrane. 5. The apparent Ca2+ conductance of the carrier shows a sigmoidal dependence on the activity of Ca2+ in the medium. At 23 degrees C and pH7.2, half-maximum conductance is obtained at a Ca2+ activity of 4.7 muM. 6. The apparent Ca2+ conductance and the H+ conductance of the inner membrane increase fourfold from 23 degrees to 38 degrees C. The apparent Arrhenius activation energy for Ca2+ transport is 69kJ/mol. The H+ electrochemical gradient maintained in the absence of Ca2+ transport does not vary significantly with temperature. 7. The apparent Ca2+ conductance increases fivefold on increasing the pH of the medium from 6.8 to 8.0. The H+ conductance of the membrane does not vary significantly with pH over this range. 8. Mg2+ has no effect on the apparent Ca2+ conductance when added at concentration up to 1 mM. 9. Results are compared with classical methods of studying Ca2+ transport across the mitochondrial inner membrane. 相似文献

Using flow cytometric analysis and potential-sensitive fluorescent dye TMRM Ca2+ -induced changes of membrane potential of isolated smooth muscle mitochondria were studied. It was shown, that Ca2+ (100 microM) addition to the incubation medium induced mitochondrial membrane depolarization that probably could be explained by Ca2+/H+ -exchanger activation which functioning lead to membrane potential dissipation. In the case of ruthenium red (10 microM) preliminary presence in incubation medium, Ca2+ (100 microM) addition did not lead to membrane potential dissipation. Hence, membrane potential dissipation was caused by an increase of matrix Ca2+ concentration. In the presence of Mg2+ (3 mM) and ATP (3 mM), Ca2+ addition did not cause depolarization. It was supposed that in this case ATP synthase acted in the opposite direction as H+ -pump and prevented from mitochondrial membrane potential dissipation. Thus, the flow cytometry method allows to register membrane potential of isolated smooth muscle mitochondria and also to test the effectors, capable to modulate this parameter. 相似文献

In Arabidopsis thaliana cells, hypoosmotic treatment initially stimulates Ca2+ influx and inhibits its efflux and, concurrently, promotes a large H2O2 accumulation in the external medium, representative of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. After the first 10-15 min, Ca2+ influx rate is, however, lowered, and a large rise in Ca2+ efflux, concomitant with a rapid decline in H2O2 level, takes place. The drop of the H2O2 peak, as well as the efflux of Ca2+, are prevented by treatment with submicromolar concentrations of eosin yellow (EY), selectively inhibiting the Ca2+-ATPase of the plasma membrane (PM). Comparable changes of Ca2+ fluxes are also induced by hyperosmotic treatment. However, in this case, the H2O2 level does not rise, but declines below control levels when Ca2+ efflux is activated. Also K+ and H+ net fluxes across the PM and cytoplasmic pH (pH(cyt)) are very differently influenced by the two opposite stresses: strongly decreased by hypoosmotic stress and increased under hyperosmotic treatment. The H2O2 accumulation kinetics, followed as a function of the pH(cyt) changes imposed by modulation of the PM H+-ATPase activity or weak acid treatment, show a close correlation between pH(cyt) and H2O2 formed, a larger amount being produced for changes towards acidic pH values. Overall, these results confirm a relevant role for the PM Ca2+-ATPase in switching off the signal triggering ROS production, and propose a role for the PM H+-ATPase in modulating the development of the oxidative wave through the pH(cyt) changes following the changes of its activity induced by stress conditions. 相似文献

The involvement of ion channels in B and T lymphocyte activation is supported by many reports of changes in ion fluxes and membrane potential after mitogen binding. Human T and B lymphocytes demonstrate an early and transient hyperpolarization after ligand binding. Inasmuch as the change in membrane potential is dependent on elevation of free cytosolic calcium, the hyperpolarization is presumably through opening of Ca(2+)-stimulated K+ channels. We have used charybdotoxin, a known inhibitor of Ca(2+)-dependent K+ channels, to study the role of these channels in lymphocyte activation and mitogenesis. We demonstrate that charybdotoxin inhibits the ligand-induced transient membrane hyperpolarization in B and T cells in a dose-dependent fashion, without affecting changes in cytosolic Ca2+. However, blockade of the Ca(2+)-activated K+ channel is not associated with changes in cell-cycle gene activation, IL-2 production, IL-2R expression or B and T cell mitogenesis. These results imply that membrane potential changes secondary to the ligand-dependent opening of Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels are not involved in B and T lymphocyte activation and mitogenesis. 相似文献

Electrophysiological effects of anaphylactic stimulation of rat basophilic leukemia cells (RBL-2H3) were studied using conventional microelectrodes. Stimulation of passively sensitized cells by anti-immunoglobulin E resulted in hyperpolarization followed by depolarization. These changes in membrane polarization were associated with a decrease in input membrane resistance. No effect of anaphylactic stimulation was seen in Ca2+-free solution or when Ca2+ influx was blocked by Co2+, but it was mimicked by the Ca2+ ionophore A-23187. This suggests that the changes in ionic conductances were associated with calcium influx. These results support the hypothesis that membrane conductance changes are involved in the stimulus-secretion process of the RBL-2H3 cells. 相似文献

Stomatal movement is accomplished by changes in the ionic content within guard cells as well as in the cell wall of the surrounding stomatal pore. In this study, the sub-stomatal apoplastic activities of K+, Cl-, Ca2+ and H+ were continuously monitored by inserting ion-selective micro-electrodes through the open stomata of intact Vicia faba leaves. In light-adapted leaves, the mean activities were 2.59 mM (K+), 1.26 mM (Cl-), 64 microM (Ca2+) and 89 microM (H+). Stomatal closure was investigated through exposure to abscisic acid (ABA), sudden darkness or both. Feeding the leaves with ABA through the cut petiole initially resulted in peaks after 9-10 min, in which Ca2+ and H+ activities transiently decreased, and Cl- and K+ activities transiently increased. Thereafter, Ca2+, H+ and Cl- activities completely recovered, while K+ activity approached an elevated level of around 10 mM within 20 min. Similar responses were observed following sudden darkness, with the difference that Cl- and Ca2+ activities recovered more slowly. Addition of ABA to dark-adapted leaves evoked responses of Cl- and Ca2+ similar to those observed in the light. K+ activity, starting from its elevated level, responded to ABA with a transient increase peaking around 16 mM, but then returned to its dark level. During stomatal closure, membrane potential changes in mesophyll cells showed no correlation with the K+ kinetics in the sub-stomatal cavity. We thus conclude that the increase in K+ activity mainly resulted from K+ release by the guard cells, indicating apoplastic compartmentation. Based on the close correlation between Cl- and Ca2+ changes, we suggest that anion channels are activated by a rise in cytosolic free Ca2+, a process which activates depolarization-activated K+ release channels. 相似文献

Peroxisomes as novel players in cell calcium homeostasis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Ca2+ concentration in peroxisomal matrix ([Ca2+](perox)) has been monitored dynamically in mammalian cells expressing variants of Ca2+-sensitive aequorin specifically targeted to peroxisomes. Upon stimulation with agonists that induce Ca2+ release from intracellular stores, peroxisomes transiently take up Ca2+ reaching peak values in the lumen as high as 50-100 microm, depending on cell types. Also in resting cells, peroxisomes sustain a Ca2+ gradient, [Ca2+](perox) being approximately 20-fold higher than [Ca2+] in the cytosol ([Ca2+](cyt)). The properties of Ca2+ traffic across the peroxisomal membrane are different from those reported for other subcellular organelles. The sensitivity of peroxisomal Ca2+ uptake to agents dissipating H+ and Na+ gradients unravels the existence of a complex bioenergetic framework including V-ATPase, Ca2+/H+, and Ca2+/Na+ activities whose components are yet to be identified at a molecular level. The different [Ca2+](perox) of resting and stimulated cells suggest that Ca2+ could play an important role in the regulation of peroxisomal metabolism. 相似文献

Bacteriophages P22 and dp8 cause the membrane potential depolarization for 10-30 mV, reversal rapid H+ influx into bacteria and K+ exit from S. typhimurium LT2, these effects depend on infection plural and are observed only in the presence of Ca+2 in the medium. delta psi depolarization and K+ efflux induced by phage dp8 are increased with the growth of Mg+2 concentration from 0 to 2 mM. Changes of delta pH and also Na+,Ca+2 concentrations are not observed. In the presence of glucose phage infection leads to changes in H(+)-K(+)-exchange. The phages P22 and dp8 adsorption on bacteria causes changes in the form or turn of the channels in S. typhimurium membrane. 相似文献

To assess the availability of Ca2+ in the lumen of the thylakoid membrane that is required to support the assembly of the oxygen-evolving complex of photosystem II, we have investigated the mechanism of 45Ca2+ transport into the lumen of pea (Pisum sativum) thylakoid membranes using silicone-oil centrifugation. Trans-thylakoid Ca2+ transport is dependent on light or, in the dark, on exogenously added ATP. Both light and ATP hydrolysis are coupled to Ca2+ transport through the formation of a transthylakoid pH gradient. The H+-transporting ionophores nigericin/K+ and carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone inhibit the transport of Ca2+. Thylakoid membranes are capable of accumulating up to 30 nmol Ca2+ mg-1 chlorophyll from external concentrations of 15 μM over the course of a 15-min reaction. These results are consistent with the presence of an active Ca2+/H+ antiport in the thylakoid membrane. Ca2+ transport across the thylakoid membrane has significant implications for chloroplast and plant Ca2+ homeostasis. We propose a model of chloroplast Ca2+ regulation whereby the activity of the Ca2+/H+ antiporter facilitates the light-dependent uptake of Ca2+ by chloroplasts and reduces stromal Ca2+ levels. 相似文献

The acrosome reaction in many animals is a coupled reaction involving an exocytotic step and a dramatic change in cell shape. It has been proposed that these morphological changes are regulated by intracellular ions such as Ca2+ and H+. We report here simultaneous visualization, under a multiview microscope, of intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), intracellular pH (pHi), and morphological changes in a single starfish sperm (Asterina pectinifera). [Ca2+]i and pHi were monitored with the fluorescent probes indo-1 and SNARF-1, respectively. The acrosome reaction was induced with ionomycin. After the introduction of ionomycin in the medium, [Ca2+]i increased gradually and reached a plateau in approximately 30 s. The fusion of the acrosomal vacuole took place abruptly before the plateau, during the rising phase. Although the speed of the [Ca2+]i increase varied among the many sperm tested, exocytosis in all cases occurred at the same [Ca2+]i of approximately 2 microM (estimated using the dissociation constant of indo-1 for Ca2+ of 1.1 microM). This result suggests that the exocytotic mechanism in starfish sperm responds to [Ca2+]i rapidly, with a reaction time of the order of one second or less. Unlike the change in [Ca2+]i, an abrupt increase in pHi was observed immediately after exocytosis, suggesting the presence of a proton mobilizing system that is triggered by exocytosis. The rapid increase in pHi coincided with the formation of the acrosomal rod and the beginning of vigorous movement of the flagellum, both of which have been proposed to be pHi dependent. The exocytotic event itself was visualized with the fluorescent membrane probe RH292. The membrane of the acrosomal vacuole, concealed from the external medium in an unreacted sperm, was seen to fuse with the plasma membrane. 相似文献

The survey is aimed to review the data from literature, concerning possible mechanisms of Ca2+ and H+ transport through the plasma membrane of a cells, and also possibility of existence of Ca2+/H(+)-exchange in the plasma membrane of the muscle cells. It is known that the modification of pHl (delta pH) also can influence the work of the contractile system of muscle cells, and the transition of Ca2+ through the plasma membrane of the cells. Thus, one can suppose a direct relation between Ca2+ and H+ transport, through Ca2+/H+ exchange, and indirect relation through connection with other systems of transport of both Ca2+ (Ca(2+)-ATPase, Na+/Ca2+ exchange), and H+ (Na+/H(+)-exchange, H(+)-ATPase). For example it is shown, that the activator (inhibitor) of the Na+/H(+)-exchange through the plasma membrane of muscle cells, influence the work of the retractive system. And as is known, Ca2+ takes main part in involvement in the system excitation--contraction, and, thus, influencing the work of the Na+/H(+)-exchange, it is possible to regulate transport of Ca2+ through the plasma membrane of a muscle cell. The problem about a possibility of existence of Ca2+/H+ exchange, or functioning of Ca2+/H(+)-exchanger, is still far from the solution. Therefore, in the given review the attempt is made to analyze available information about possible connection between Ca2+ and H+ transport through the plasma cell membrane. 相似文献

In order to elucidate the nature of endogenous proton conductance of rat liver inner mitochondrial membrane, the dependence of the rate of Ca2+ transport on pH was studied. It was found that the inhibiting effect of H+ is independent of protonation of functional groups of hypothetical Ca2+ carrier, but results from electrogenic transfer of H+ across the membrane, which is highly permeable for the proton. The adsorption of H+ by mitochondria is inhibited by ruthenium red and other specific inhibitors of Ca2+ transport. It is concluded that endogenous proton conductance of the inner mitochondrial membrane depends on the functioning of the same transport system essential for membrane permeability for Ca2+ and other bivalent cations. The correlation observed between the rates of H+ and Ca2+ transport in mitochondria and the ratio of cation mobilities in aqueous solutions is in favour of a "porous" mechanism of cation transport across the mitochondrial membrane. 相似文献
