Calcium gradients and exocytosis in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells

The relationship between the localized Ca2+ concentration and depolarization-induced exocytosis was studied in patch-clamped adrenal chromaffin cells using pulsed-laser Ca2+ imaging and membrane capacitance measurements. Short depolarizing voltage steps induced Ca2+ gradients and small "synchro...

description The relationship between the localized Ca2+ concentration and depolarization-induced exocytosis was studied in patch-clamped adrenal chromaffin cells using pulsed-laser Ca2+ imaging and membrane capacitance measurements. Short depolarizing voltage steps induced Ca2+ gradients and small "synchronous" increases in capacitance during the pulses. Longer pulses increased the capacitance changes, which saturated at 16 fF, suggesting the presence of a small immediately releasable pool of fusion-ready vesicles. A Hill plot of the capacitance changes versus the estimated Ca2+ concentration in a thin (100 nm) shell beneath the membrane gave n = 2.3 and Kd = 1.4 μM.
