abstract：:Cd2+ provokes inositol trisphosphate production and releases stored Ca2+, apparently by binding to a zinc site in the external domain of an orphan receptor. One microM Cd2+ evokes an immediate spike in cytosolic free Ca2+, which is similar to that evoked by bradykinin. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) also increa...
