RESULTS:Ca 2+ influxes could be elicited by adding 1 mmol/L CaCl2 to the test solution of HL-7702 cells.They were enhanced by addition of 20μmol/L noradrenalin and inhibited by 100μmol/L LaCl3(a non-selective Ca 2+ channel blocker);5μmol/L nifedipine did not induce any change.Overexpression of TRPC1 caused increased Ca 2+ influx.Five micromoles per liter nifedipine did not inhibit this elevation,whereas 100μmol/L LaCl3 did.CONCLUSION:In HL-7702 cells,there is a type of TRPC1-dependent Ca 2+ channel,which could be detected via NMT and inhibited by La3+.展开更多
