Abstract:
Addition of serum growth factors or bombesin to quiescent NIH3T3-fibroblasts leads to a simultaneous mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ and an increase in cytosolic pH which is inhibitable by dimethylamiloride. The mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ is a pH-dependent process with an optimum at pH 7.1. In quiescent cells with a pHi greater than or equal to 6.8, inhibition of the Na+/H(+)-antiporter by dimethylamiloride or reduction of extracellular Na+ attenuates the growth factor induced Ca2(+)-response. It is concluded that the growth factor induced activation of the Na+/H(+)-antiporter facilitates the mobilization of Ca2+ by shifting the internal pH towards the optimum for the Ca2(+)-release.
