Direct inhibition of cell surface ephrin-B2 by recombinant ephrin-B2/FC.

abstract：:The properties of the Ca stores in the skinned fiber bundles of the guinea-pig taenia caeci were studied by a novel method to measure Ca released from the stores using a fluorescent Ca indicator, fura-2. It is found that the capacity of the Ca stores amounts some 170 mumoles/liter cell water. There are at least two Ca...
