Muscarinic and nicotinic receptors raise intracellular Ca2+ levels in rat carotid body type I cells.
1. The effects of cholinergic agonists upon intracellular free Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) have been studied in enzymically isolated rat carotid body single type I cells, using indo-1. 2. Acetylcholine (ACh) dose-dependently increased [Ca2+]i in 55% of cells studied (EC50 = 13 microM). These [Ca2+]i rises...
