Interactions between hypoxia and hypercapnic acidosis on calcium signaling in carotid body type I cells.
The effects of hypercapnic acidosis and hypoxia on intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) were determined with Indo 1 in enzymatically isolated single type I cells from neonatal rat carotid bodies. Type I cells responded to graded hypoxic stimuli with graded [Ca(2+)](i) rises. The percenta...
