  • Title: Different calcium requirements during incorporation of myo-inositol into membrane lipids for phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis stimulated by carbachol and noradrenaline.
    Author: Nalepa I, Chalecka-Franaszek E, Vetulani J.
    Journal: Pol J Pharmacol Pharm; 1990; 42(4):351-4. PubMed ID: 2097596.
    Abstract:
    Stimulation of phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis by noradrenaline requires the presence of calcium in the medium during the whole incubation and preincubation procedure, while carbachol-induced inositol phosphate formation is equally efficient in calcium-free and calcium-containing medium. This finding confirms the notion that phosphatidylinositols mobilized after stimulation of various receptors are present in different metabolic pools: the pool mobilized by alpha 1 adrenoceptors is apparently formed from myo-inositol incorporated into membrane phospholipids by a calcium-dependent process.
