Bradykinin-induced generation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in fibroblasts and neuroblastoma cells: effect of pertussis toxin, extracellular calcium, and down-regulation of protein kinase C.

abstract：:Reaction of metmyoglobin with peroxides is known to involve the formation, possibly via a porphyrin radical-cation, of a ferryl (iron(IV)-oxo) species and a protein radical; there is a little information available as to which of these species initiates the damage which is observed on incubating membrane fractions with...
