“…In SMG neurons, we previously demonstrated that several different neurotransmitters produce modulation of VDCCs via a pathway using G-proteins 20,38) . GPCR activated by neurotransmitters couple to the carboxy-terminals of G-protein ␣ subunits, and polyclonal antibodies raised against C-terminal peptide sequences of different G␣ subunits have been shown to functionally antagonize neurotransmitter modulation of VDCCs (e.g.…”

“…SMG neurons from hamsters were acutely dissociated with a modified version of the method described previously 20) . In brief, SMG neurons were isolated from 4-6-week-old hamsters and maintained in Ca ‫ם2‬ -free Krebs solution of the following composition (in mM): 136 NaCl, 5 KCl, 3 MgCl 2 ·6H 2 O, 10.9 glucose, 11.9 NaHCO 3 , and 1.1 NaH 2 PO 4 ·2H 2 O.…”

“…The animals were treated in accordance with the principles approved by the Council of the Physiological Society of Japan and in compliance with the guidelines of the Japanese Government. SMG neurons from hamsters were acutely dissociated using a modified version of the methods described previously 15 . In Brief, male hamsters 4-6 weeks old were anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium (30 mg/kg, i.p.)…”

“…2B, selective antagonists were applied prior to ADM and CGRP. In contrast to SQ22536 and PKI (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24), in neurons treated with U-73122 (a membrane-permeable aminosteroid which blocks phosphatidylinositol-specific PLC, 10 μM for 15 min), GF109203X (a selective PKC inhibitor, 10 μM for 30 min) and PD98,059 (a MAPK tyrosine kinase inhibitor, 10 μM for 2 min) did not attenuate the ADM-and CGRP-induced facilitation of IBa. These results suggest that ADM and CGRP facilitates VDCCs involving AC and PKA pathways in the SMG neurons (Fig.…”

“…1 In particular, the acute effect of AngII on L-type calcium currents has been shown to be dependent on the cell type: while in smooth muscle is accepted that AngII induce activation of L-type calcium current; [2][3][4] in neurons and kidney the opposing effect (inhibition of L-type calcium current) is observed. [5][6][7] On the other hand, the effect of this hormone in cardiac muscle is still controversial as AngII was reported to induce an increase 8,9 or a decrease 10,11 of L-type calcium current in heart cells. Although the reason for this disagreement is not known, it is proposed that the experimental approach is relevant.…”
