In the marine ciliate Euplotes raikovi, pheromone released by a complementary mating type (nonself pheromone) induces typical sexual behaviour, whereas self pheromone released by the same mating type generally has no effect. Nonself pheromone evokes

Ciliates possess diverse Ca2+ homeostasis systems, but little is known about the occurrence of a Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger. We studied Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange in the ciliate Euplotes crassus by digital imaging. Cells were loaded with fura-2/AM or SBF1/AM for

Electric membrane properties and motor behaviour of two Antarctic and two middle-latitude species of Euplotes were compared. Membrane potential fluctuations and whole-cell currents were measured using the whole cell clamp. The electrical properties o

Equally dispersed Euplotes vannus cells accumulate inside a drop of supernatant of a bacteria suspension that is surrounded by a reference solution. In the drop, frequencies of stops and backward jerks are tenfold increased. The sequences of directio

Summary In the marine hypotrich Euplotes vannus, the coupling of behavioural elements to shifts in the freely fluctuating membrane potential was investigated by use of a computerized locomotion track evaluation system. Potential shifts were attribute

In the marine hypotrichous ciliate Euplotes vannus, the transient K+ outward current, IK fast, was studied by use of a single-microelectrode voltage-clamp equipment. Activation and inactivation kinetics, and steady-state inactivation are comparable t

Among secondary metabolites, the acetylated hemiacetal sesquiterpene euplotin C has been isolated from the marine, ciliated protist Euplotes crassus, and provides an effective mechanism for reducing populations of potential competitors through its cy

Electrical responses upon mechanostimulation at the posterior cell end were investigated in the marine hypotrichous ciliate Euplotes vannus. A new mechanostimulator was developed to mimic stimuli that are identical with those involved in cell-cell co

The ionic mechanisms underlying inward or anomalous rectification have been studied in the marine hypotrichous ciliate Euplotes vannus. Inward-current pulses of moderate amplitude elicited time-dependent rectification that started from a hyperpolariz

Ca and Na inward currents were recorded upon depolarizations in Euplotes after the blockage of K outward currents with intracellular Cs ions. The Na current was analyzed under voltage clamp and had the following properties: it activated to a maximum
