2004 OCT 15 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Ca[superscript]2+ signaling is explored in embryonic stem cells.
According to recent research from Japan, "Mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells have the potential to differentiate into all types of cells, but the physiological properties of undifferentiated mES cells, including Ca[superscript]2+ signaling systems, are not fully understood.
"In this study, we investigated Ca[superscript]2+ signaling pathways in mES cells by using conforcal Ca[superscript]2+ imaging systems, patch clamp techniques and RT-PCR.
"The stimulations with ATP and histamine (His) induced a transient increase of intracellular ...
