“…These data suggested that CaN kinetics were altered by hypoxia. Notably, an early increase in basal and maximal CaN activity also has been reported in the adult brain after experimental status epilepticus (Kurz et al, 2001). Ca 2ϩ influx through GluRs regulates Ca 2ϩ -dependent intracellular enzymes such as CaN (Snyder et al, 1998b;Morioka et al, 1999;Vignes, 2001;Shibasaki et al, 2002) and calcium/calmodulindependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) , and CaN can be activated by increased intracellular Ca 2ϩ specifically through AMPAR activation (Nishi et al, 2002).…”
