There are numerous studies on transepithelial transports in duct cells including Cl and/or HCO3. However, studies on transepithelial K transport of normal duct cells in exocrine glands are scarce. In the present study, we examined the characteristics of K currents in single duct cells isolated from guinea pig pancreas, using a whole-cell patch clamp technique. Both Cl and K conductance were found with KCl rich pipette solutions. When the bath solution... -

from 0 to 11.8 and 28.2 mV, respectively. The relative permeability of the cytolysin pores to anions measured at 40 mV was Cl = NO2 ≥ Br = I > SCN > acetate > isethionate > ascorbic acid > EDTA2, in descending order. The cytolysin-induced pore current was blocked by Cl channel blockers or nucleotides. These results indicate that V. vulnificus cytolysin forms anion-selective pores in CPAE cells. -

The pelvic ganglia provide autonomic innervations to the various urogenital organs, such as the urinary bladder, prostate, and penis. It is well established that both sympathetic and parasympathetic synaptic transmissions in autonomic ganglia are mediated mainly by acetylcholine (ACh). Until now, however, the properties of ACh-induced currents and its receptors in pelvic ganglia have not clearly been elucidated. In the present study, biophysical characteristics and molecular nature of nicotinic... -
PGE2 Regulates Pacemaker Currents through EP2-Receptor in Cultured Interstitial Cells of Cajal from Murine Small Intestine

The interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) are the pacemaker cells in gastrointestinal tract and generate electrical rhythmicity in gastrointestinal muscles. Therefore, ICC may be modulated by endogenous agents such as neurotransmitter, hormones, and prostaglandins (PGs). In the present study, we investigated the effects of prostaglandins, especially PGE2, on pacemaker currents in cultured ICCs from murine small intestine by using whole-cell patch clamp techniques. ICCs generated spontaneous slow... -

We developed a cardiac cell model to explain the phenomenon of mechano-electric feedback (MEF), based on the experimental data with rat atrial myocytes. It incorporated the activity of ion channels, pumps, exchangers, and changes of intracellular ion concentration. Changes in membrane excitability and Ca2 transients could then be calculated. In the model, the major ion channels responsible for the stretch-induced changes in electrical activity were the stretch-activated channels (SACs).... -

and 80 mV (n=5). Glibenclamide (100μM) or ATP (2 mM) failed to block the channel openings, indicating that it is not ATP-sensitive K channel. Arachidonic acid (30μM), which has been shown to activate a K channel cooperatively with membrane stretch, did not affect the channel activity. GdCl3 (100μM) also did not alter the activity. These results demonstrate that the mechanical stretch in rat atrial myocytes activates a novel K-selective cation channel, which is not... -

It has been demonstrated that an unidentified cytosolic factor(s) reduces KACh channel function. Therefore, this study attempted to elucidate the cytosolic factor. Fresh cytosol isolated from normal heart (FC) depressed the KACh channel activity, but cytosol isolated from the ischemic hearts (IC) did not modulate the channel function. Electrophorectic analysis revealed that a protein of ∼80 kDa was markedly reduced or even lost in IC. By using peptide sequencing analysis and Western blot, this... -

Interneuron diversity is one of the key factors to hinder understanding the mechanism of cortical neural network functions even with their important roles. We characterized inhibitory interneurons in layer II/III of the rat primary visual cortex, using patch-clamp recording and confocal reconstruction, and classified inhibitory interneurons into fast spiking (FS), late spiking (LS), burst spiking (BS), and regular spiking non-pyramidal (RSNP) neurons according to their electrophysiological... -

Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), classified into three groups (group I, II, III), play a critical role in modulation of synaptic transmission at central and peripheral synapses. In the present study, extracellular field potential recording techniques were used to investigate effects of mGluR agonists on excitatory synaptic transmission at thalamic input synapses onto the lateral amygdala. The non-selective mGluR agonist t-ACPD (100μM) produced reversible, short-term depression, but... -

at a concentration of 50μM 5-HT. PSs mediated by non-NMDA glutamate receptors, which were isolated by bath application of the NMDA receptor antagonist, d,l-2-amino-5-phospohonovaleric acid (AP-V), were decreased by application of 50μM 5-HT. However, PSs mediated by NMDA receptors, that were activated by application of zero Mg2 aCSF, were not significantly affected by 50μM 5-HT. To test whether the corticostriatal synaptic inhibitions by 5-HT might involve a change in the probability of...
