FGFR3 — PTX4
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Satoh et al., J Neurochem 1991
:
The dose-response curves for the
PTX induced increases in [ 3H ]
ACh release and in [ Ca2+ ] i were depressed by removing extracellular Ca2+ or by decreasing extracellular Na+ concentrations ... It appears that at high concentrations
PTX increases the release of [ 3H ]
ACh by directly increasing the influx of Ca2+ into synaptosomes and by releasing Ca2+ from intracellular storage sites via an Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange mechanism
Kupchik et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2008
(Synaptic Transmission) :
We show that
PTX enhances
ACh and glutamate release ( in mice and crayfish, respectively ) and, most importantly, alters the time course of release without affecting Ca ( 2+ ) currents
Silinsky et al., Br J Pharmacol 1989
:
Pertussis toxin ( PTX ) , which blocks certain classes of guanine nucleotide binding proteins ( G proteins ), consistently
blocked the inhibitory effects of adenosine ( 100 microM-250 microM ) on quantal
acetylcholine (ACh) secretion in rat phrenic nerve hemidiaphragm preparations
Santos et al., J Neurochem 1998
:
The effect of adenosine on the [ 3H ]
ACh release may be due to a direct inhibition of N-type Ca2+ channels and/or secondary to the inhibition of phospholipase C and
involves the activation of
PTX-sensitive G proteins
