The patch-clamp technique was used to study the effect of extracellular and intracellular iodide on the properties of the volume-activated anion current in HeLa cells. Upon hypotonic challenge, HeLa cells responded by ...

Organic osmolyte and halide permeabil-ity pathways activated in epithelial HeLa cells by osmotically induced cell swelling were studied using electrophysiological and radiotracer efflux techniques. On hypotonie challenge, ...

Organic osmolyte and halide permeability pathways activated in epithelial HeLa cells by osmotically induced cell swelling were studied using electrophysiological and radiotracer efflux techniques. On hypotonic challenge, ...

We have shown that in HTC cells, ICl,vol is critically dependent on PLC activation. Moreover, mobilization of Ca2+ from IP3-sensitive intracellular stores plays a fundamental role in the development of this current. On the ...

In this paper we consider cardiac electrical activity through bidomain model, to describe the electrical behavior of cardiac tissue, based on current flow, electric potential distribution and conservation of charge. So we ...

Volume-sensitive outwardly rectifying (VSOR) Cl channels are critical for the regulatory volume decrease (RVD) response triggered upon cell swelling. Recent evidence indicates that H2O2 plays an essential role in the ...

Production and secretion of testosterone in Leydig cells are mainly controlled by the luteinizing hormone (LH). Biochemical evidences suggest that the activity of Cl(-) ions can modulate the steroidogenic process, but the ...

Motores de Indução Trifásicos são máquinas altamente utilizadas por toda a indústria ao redor do mundo por seu baixo custo e adequação a um grande número de aplicações. Essas máquinas estão em constante desenvolvimento ...

Chloride permeability pathways and progesterone (P4) secretion elicited by human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in human granulosa cells were studied by electrophysiological techniques and single-cell volume, membrane ...
