Abstract: | A considerable rise in inositol phosphates was observed at the beginning of myoblast fusion. Extracellular ATP, through P2-purinergic receptors, induced inositol phosphate accumulation before and after fusion; however, no effect of ATP on phosphoinositol levels could be detected during the period of fusion. The possibility of ATP being a fusion signal is discussed. |
