title: [Effect of bacterial toxins on the mitogen-induced increase of the Ca2+ concentration in the cytoplasm of rat thymocytes. The role of N proteins].
abstract: The effect of bacterial toxins, modifying the activity of regulatory N proteins of adenylate cyclase and probably other systems, on the mitogen-induced changes of cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) has been studied using Ca2+ fluorescent probe quin-2. It is shown that treatment of thymocytes with cholera toxin, E. coli heat-labile (HL) toxin or pertussis toxin abolishes the concanavalin A (con A)-induced rise of [Ca2+]i. The inhibitory effect of cholera and HL toxins can be explained by the toxin-induced rise of intracellular cAMP. The effect of pertussis toxin indicates the involvement of N proteins in the action of con A receptor and in generation of Ca2+-signal during the mitogenic activation of thymocytes.
