| Abstract | Hormones and neurotransmitters that act through inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) can induce oscillations of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]c), which render dynamic regulation of intracellular targets. Imaging of fluorescent Ca2+ indicators located within intracellular Ca2+ stores was used to monitor IP3 receptor channel (IP3R) function and to demonstrate that IP3-dependent oscillations of Ca2+ release and re-uptake can be reproduced in single permeabilized hepatocytes. This system was used to define the minimum essential components of the oscillation mechanism. With IP3 clamped at a submaximal concentration, coordinated cycles of IP3R activation and subsequent inactivation were observed in each cell. Cycling between these states was dependent on feedback effects of released Ca2+ and the ensuing [Ca2+]c increase, but did not require Ca2+ re-accumulation. [Ca2+]c can act at distinct stimulatory and inhibitory sites on the IP3R, but whereas the Ca2+ release phase was driven by a Ca2+-induced increase in IP3 sensitivity, Ca2+ release could be terminated by intrinsic inactivation after IP3 bound to the Ca2+-sensitized IP3R without occupation of the inhibitory Ca2+-binding site. These findings were confirmed using Sr2+, which only interacts with the stimulatory site. Moreover, vasopressin induced Sr2+ oscillations in intact cells in which intracellular Ca2+ was completely replaced with Sr2+. Thus, [Ca2+]c oscillations can be driven by a coupled process of Ca2+-induced activation and obligatory intrinsic inactivation of the Ca2+-sensitized state of the IP3R, without a requirement for occupation of the inhibitory Ca2+-binding site. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
