Mitochondrial membrane potential is a major factor that controls, ultimately, the cellular
energy supply. By use of a mitochondrial membrane potential dye (rhodamine 123, R123) …

In the present work, we investigated the relationship between mitochondrial function and
Ca2+ homeostasis in brain slices obtained from mice that aged normally. In acute …

In hippocampal slices from rats, dialysis with rhodamine-123 (Rh-123) and/or fura-2 via the
patch electrode allowed monitoring of mitochondrial potential (ΔΨ) changes and …

Using the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm)-sensitive fluorescent dyes 5, 5′, 6, 6′-
tetrachloro-1, 1′, 3, 3′-tetraethylbenzimidazolocarbocyanine iodide (JC-1) and …

Depolarization of neurons promotes Ca2+ influx through voltage-activated channels, raising
the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+] i). The consequences of such changes in …

Alterations of neuronal Ca2+ homeostatic mechanisms could be responsible for many of the
cognitive deficits associated with aging in mammals. Mitochondrial participation in Ca2+ …

The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake (MCU) in
modulation (shaping) of the glutamate (Glu)‐induced changes in neuronal cytoplasmic …

The influence of cytosolic Ca2+ load and of mitochondrial membrane potential change on
mitochondrial morphology was investigated in cultured rat hippocampal astrocytes. The …

Synaptosomes were isolated from cerebral cortex of 3-, 18-and 24-month-old male, Fisher
344 rats and 45 Ca 2+ uptake was measured at 1, 3, 5 and 30 s time periods following 65 …

Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in dissociated rat cerebellar neurons was
measured using rhodamine 123 (Rh 123) as fluorescent dye, and flow cytometry. Dye …
