  • Title: Induction of increased calcium uptake in mouse T lymphocytes by concanavalin A and its modulation by cyclic nucleotides.
    Author: Freedman MH, Raff MC.
    Journal: Nature; 1975 May 29; 255(5507):378-82. PubMed ID: 165431.
    Abstract:
    The binding of concanavqlin A to T but not B mouse spleen lymphocytes increases Ca-2+ uptake in these cells which is measurable by 45 s and complete by 1 min. Dibutyrl cyclic AMP, but not sodium azide inhibits induced Ca-2+ uptake, wheras dibutyryl cyclic GMP enhances it. B cell mitogens do not cause a similar Ca-2+ uptake in mouse B lymphocytes. The induction of increased Ca-2+ uptake by T cells is discussed in terms of gated membrane channels for Ca-2+.
