Effect of the alpha-agonist noradrenaline on total and 45Ca2+ movements in mitochondria of rat liver cells.
Ca(2+) movements triggered by noradrenaline were determined in isolated cells and mitochondria from rat livers. It has been shown that these depend on experimental conditions. In cells incubated in 1.8mm-Ca(2+), results suggest that noradrenaline mobilizes Ca(2+) from reticulum before releasing Ca(2+) from mitochondria.
