High impact information on Egta-AME

  • Inhibition of this early calcium signaling by cell-permeable Ca(2+) chelators [EGTA-acetoxymethyl ester (AM), 1, 2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid-AM (BAPTA-AM), 8-amino-2-[(2-amino-5-methylphenoxy)methyl]-6-methoxyquinoline-N,N , N',N'-tetraacetic acid-tetra-AM] abolished cytotoxicity as measured by propidium iodide uptake [1].
  • (iii) The administration of a Ca(2+) chelator, EGTA-acetoxymethyl ester (AM, 0.3 mM), to the endolymph, which produced a gradual increase in EP, suppressed significantly, by 60-80%, DeltaEP(asp) or furosemide-induced changes in EP [2].
  • Treatment of cells with the intracellular calcium chelator EGTA-acetoxymethyl ester inhibited BK-stimulated MAPK activation, suggesting that intracellular calcium mobilization contributes to the activation of MAPK [3].
