A Novel Effect of Bifemelane, a Nootropic Drug, on Intracellular Ca2+ Levels in Rat Cerebral Astrocytes
Abstract.: We investigated the effects of bifemelane, a nootropic drug, on the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in rat cerebral astrocytes using a Ca2+ imaging device. At concentrations of 10 – 30 µM, bifemelane induced a slow onset and small increase in the [Ca2+]i, while at higher con...
