Popis: Reduction of intracellular Ca(2+) stores (by chelation with the EDTA structural analogue, TPEN) is itself a sufficient trigger of capacitative Ca(2+) entry. TPEN may be a useful tool in studies to investigate the mechanism of capacitative Ca(2+) entry, since potential confounders, such as changes in cytosolic Ca(2+) and second messenger levels, are obviated and the use of pharmacological modifiers of SERCA pumps and Ca(2+) release channels is avoided.
