Abstract
The fluorescent calcium-sensitive indicators, such as the Calcium Green-1, allow one to detect small calcium transients at low indicator concentrations. The protocol reported here is a rapid and sensitive method that facilitates the measurement of intracellular free-calcium in cell suspensions. Using this assay, we were able to detect and quantify the variations in intracellular calcium concentration during microglial cell activation induced by the fragment peptides beta25-35 and PrP106-126.Entities:
