High impact information on Pdlim3

  • The respiratory burst was markedly inhibited by blockers of SK2 (apamin) and SK4 channels (clotrimazole and charybdotoxin), and to a lesser extent, by the potent Kv1.3 blocker agitoxin-2 [1].
  • This effect may have involved decreased calcium influx through NMDA receptors and a subsequent reduction in the activation of SK2 calcium-activated potassium channels [2].
  • Alkaline (Alp) and acid (Acp) phosphatase activities were higher in Ga+ than in Ga- calvaria (Ga+: Alp 223 +/- 23.4 U/mg prot, Ga-: Alp 145 +/- 13.3 U/mg prot, P less than 0.02; Ga+: Acp 69.5 +/- 4.7 U/mg prot, Ga-: 57.5 +/- 2.8 U/mg prot, P less than 0.05) [3].
  • Mucosa was scraped, weighed, and analyzed for protein content and Alp activity [4].
  • Samples of mesenteric lymph nodes for standard bacteriological cultures and a fragment of ileum for histological examination and mucosal contents of protein, Alp were obtained [5].
 

Anatomical context of Pdlim3

  • Electrophysiological recordings of SK2 channels in membrane patches from oocytes coexpressing mutant calmodulins revealed that channel gating is mediated by Ca2+ binding to the first and second E-F hand motifs in the N-terminal domain of calmodulin [6].
