| Abstract | Effect of sertraline, an antidepressant, on cytosolic free $Ca^{2+}$ levels $([Ca^{2+}]_{i})$ in human cancer cells is unclear. This study examined if sertraline altered basal $[Ca^{2+}]_{i}$ levels in suspended OC2 human oral cancer by using fura-2 as a $Ca^{2+}-sensitive$ fluorescent probe. At concentrations of 10−100 μM, sertraline induced a $[Ca^{2+}]_{i}$ rise in a concentration-dependent fashion. The $Ca^{2+}$ signal was reduced partly by removing extracellular $Ca^{2+}$ indicating that $Ca^{2+}$ entry and release both contributed to the $[Ca^{2+}]_{i}$ rise. Sertraline induced $Mn^{2+}$ influx, leading to quench of fura-2 fluorescence suggesting $Ca^{2+}$ influx. This $Ca^{2+}$ influx was inhibited by suppression of phospholipase A2, inhibition of store-operated $Ca^{2+}$ channels or by modulation of protein kinase C activity. In $Ca^{2+}-free$ medium, pretreatment with the endoplasmic reticulum $Ca^{2+}$ pump inhibitor thapsigargin or 2,5-di-(t-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone (BHQ) nearly abolished sertraline-induced $Ca^{2+}$ release. Conversely, pretreatment with sertraline greatly reduced the inhibitor-induced $[Ca^{2+}]_{i}$ rise, suggesting that sertraline released $Ca^{2+}$ from the endoplasmic reticulum. Inhibition of phospholipase C did not change sertraline-induced $[Ca^{2+}]_{i}$ rise. Together, in human oral cancer cells, sertraline induced $[Ca^{2+}]_{i}$ rises by causing phospholipase C-independent $Ca^{2+}$ release from the endoplasmic reticulum and $Ca^{2+}$ influx via store-operated $Ca^{2+}$ channels. |

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.
