In this paper, the $Sr_{1-x}Ca_{x}TiO_{3}(0{\leq}x{\leq}0.2)$ 2)-based grain boundary layer ceramics were fabricated to measured dielectric properties and voltage-current properties. The sintering temperature and time were $1420\sim1520^{\circ}C$, 4hours, in $N_{2}$ gas, respectively. The structural and the dielectric properties were investigated by SEM, X-ray, HP4194A and K6517. The 2nd phase formed by thermal diffusion from the surface lead to a very high apparent dielectric constant, $\varepsilon_r$ > 50000. X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited cubic structure for all specimens. Increasing content of Ca, the peak intensity were decreased.ﱇﶖ⨀ਆᘍ܀㘱㔮㠹㬅K䍄乍

The effects of alternating voltage, $Cl^-$ ion and pH on the corrosion of Zn and Zn-Fe alloys have been investigated by using electrochemical techniques in $Ca(OH)_2$ solutions. The passive film $Zn(OH)_2$ was initially formed on the Zn surface and gradually transformed to $Ca(Zn(OH)_3)_2{\cdot}2H_2O$, which was identified with the X-ray diffraction method, SEM micrograph and EPMA. The passivity current increased with increasing alternating voltage and decrease AC frequency. ${\xi}$ phase in Zn-Fe alloys reduced the effects of AC. The effect of $Cl^-$ ion on the passivity current of Zn was similar to the AC effect, resulting in pits on Zn. It was also found that the passive region of Zn decreased rapidly below pH 10.3 of the solution.

In our previous study (Soh and Park, 2001), we proposed that the inwardly rectifying current-voltage (I-V) relationship of small-conductance $Ca^{2＋}$-activated $K^{＋}$ channels (S $K_{Ca}$ channels) is the result of voltage-dependent blockade of $K^{＋}$ currents by intracellular divalent cations. We expressed a cloned S $K_{Ca}$ channel, rSK2, in Xenopus oocytes and further characterized the nature of the divalent cation-binding site by electrophysiological means.(omitted)

In exocrine acinar cells, $Ca^{2＋}$ -activated Cl$^{[-10]}$ channels in the apical membrane are essential for fluid secretion, but it is unclear whether such channels are important for Cl$^{[-10]}$ uptake at the base. Whole cell current recording, combined with local uncaging of caged $Ca^{2＋}$, was used to reveal the Cl$^{[-10]}$ channel distribution in mouse pancreatic acinar cells, where ~90％ of the current activated by $Ca^{2＋}$ in response toacetylcholine was carried by Cl$^{[-10]}$ .(omitted)

Exogenous carbon monoxide (0.2%) increases L-type calcium $(Ca^{2+})$ current in human jejunal circular smooth muscle cells. The stimulatory effect of carbon monoxide (CO) on L-type $Ca^{2+}$ current is inhibited by pre-application of L-NNA, a classical competitive inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) with no significant isoform selectivity (Lim, 2003). In the present study, we investigated which isoform of NOS affected CO induced stimulation of L-type $Ca^{2+}$ current in human jejunal circular smooth muscle cells. Cells were voltage clamped by whole-cell mode patch clamp technique, and membrane currents were recorded with 10 mM barium as the charge carrier. Before the addition of CO, cells were pretreated with each inhibitor of three NOS isoforms for 15 minutes. CO-stimulating effect on L-type $Ca^{2+}$ current was partially blocked by N-(3-(Amino-methyl) benzyl) acetamidine 2HCl (1400W, an iNOS inhibitor). On the other hand, 3-bromo-7-nitroindazole (BNI, a nNOS inhibitor) or $N^5-(1-Iminoethyl)-L-ornithine$ dihydrochloride (L-NIO, an eNOS inhibitor) completely blocked the CO effect. These data suggest that low dose of exogenous CO may stimulate all NOS isoforms to increase L-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel through nitric oxide (NO) pathway in human jejunal circular smooth muscle cells.

Calcareous deposits are the consequence of pH increase of the electrolyte adjacent to metal surface affected by cathodic current in seawater. It obviously has several advantages over conventional coatings, since the calcareous deposit coating is formed from coating (Mg$^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$) naturally existing in seawater. In consideration of this respect, environment friendly calcareous deposit films were formed by an electro deposition technique on steel substrates submerged in 48$^{\circ}C$ natural seawater. And the influence of current density, coating time and attachment of steel mesh on composition ratio, structure and morphology of the electrodeposited films were investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy(EDS) and X-Ray Diffractor(XRD), respectively. Accordingly, this study provides a better understanding of the composition between the growth of $Mg(OH)_2$ and $CaCO_3$ during the formation of electro deposit films on steel substrate under cathodically electrodeposition in $48^{\circ}C$ natural seawater. The Mg compositions, in general, are getting decreased regardless of current density but Ca compositions are getting increased as electrodeposition time runs. That is, $Mg(OH)_2$ compounds of brucite structure shaped as flat type is formed at the initial stage of electrodeposition, but CaCO$_3$ compounds of aragonite structure shaped as flower type is formed in large scale. Besides, $Mg(OH)_2$ compounds were much formed at 5 A/$\m^2$ environment condition compared to the 3 A/$\m^2$ and 4 A/$\m^2$ environment conditions. This is because that OH- which was comparatively largely generated at the metal surface is preferably combined with $Mg^{2+}$TEX>.

Highly purified high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) fractions containing a putative calcium influx factor (CIF) were prepared from the Jurkat cells and Xenopus oocytes in which $Ca^{2+}$ stores were depleted by thapsigargin treatment and from the yeast in which intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ stores were also depleted by genetic means. Microinjection of the fractions has been shown to elicit $Ca^{2+}$ dependent currents in Xenopus oocytes. The nature of the membrane currents evoked by the putative CIF appeared to be carried by chloride ions since the current was blocked by the selective chloride channel blocker 1 mM niflumic acid and its reversal potential was about -24 mV. Injection of the calcium chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N, N, N',N'-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA) eradicated the current activities, suggesting the current responses are entirely $Ca^2$-dependent. Moreover, the currents were sensitive to the removal of extracellular calcium, indicating the dependence on calcium entry through the plasma membrane calcium entry channels. CIF activities were insensitive to protease, heat, and acid treatments and to Dische-reaction whereas the activities were sensitive to nucleotide pyrophosphatase and hydrazynolysis. The fraction might have a sugar because it was sensitive to Molisch test and Seliwaniff's resorcinol reaction. From the above results, CIF as a small and stable molecule seems to have pyrimidine, pyrophosphate, and a sugar moiety.oiety.

Adrenal chromaffin cells secrete catecholamine in response to acetylcholine. The secretory response has absolute requirement for extracellular calcium, indication that $Ca^{2+}$ influx through voltage dependent $Ca^{2+}$ channel (VDCC) is the primary trigger of the secretion cascade. Although the existence of various types of $Ca^{2+}$ channels has been explored using patch clamp technique in adrenal chromaffin cells, the contribution of different types of $Ca^{2+}$ channels to catecholamine secretion remains to be established. To investigate the quantative contribution of different types of $Ca^{2+}$ channels to cate-cholamine secretion, $Ca^{2+}$ current($I_{Ca}$) and the resultant membrane capacitance increment($\Delta{C}_{m}$) were simultaneoulsy measured. Software based phasor detector technique was used to monitor $\Delta{C}_{m}$. After blockade of L type VDCC with nicardipine (1$\mu$M), $I_{ca}$ was blocked to 43.85$\pm$6.72%(mean$\pm$SEM) of control and the resultant ㅿC$_{m}$ was reduced ot 30.10$\pm$16.44% of control. In the presence of nicardipine and $\omega$-conotoxin in GVIA(l$\mu$M), an N type VDCC antagonist, $I_{ca}$ was blocked to 11.62$\pm$2.96% of control and the resultant $\Delta{C}_{m}$ was reduced to 26.13$\pm$8.25% of control. Finally, in the presence of L, N, and P type $Ca^{2\pm}$ channel antagonists(nicardipine, $\omega$-Conotoxin GVIA, and $\omega$-agatoxin IVA, respectively), $I_{ca}$ and resultant $\Delta{C}_{m}$ were almost completely blocked. From the observation of parallel effects of $Ca^{2+}$ channel antagonists on $I_{ca}$ and $\Delta{C}_{m}$, it was concluded that L, N, and also P type $Ca^{2+}$ channels served and $Ca^{2+}$ source for exocytosis and no difference was observed in their efficiency to evoke exocytosis amost L, N, and P type $Ca^{2+}$ channels.

N형 칼슘전류의 비활성화 vs 전압곡선은 U형을 보인다 - 즉 칼슘 내향전류의 크기와 비활성화 정도가 어느 정도 일치한다. 이러한 U형 비활성화는 순수한 전압의존성 기전으로 설명되어져 왔으나 칼슘의존성 비활성화 기전 또한 보고되었다. 이 연구에서는 흰쥐 상행 경동맥 결절뉴론을 단일 세포로 얻은 후, whole cell patch clamp technique를 사용하여 N형 칼슘전류를 기록하고, 세포외액의 charge carrier 로서 바륨과 칼슘을 사용하면서, 칼슘이 N형 칼슘통로의 비활성화에 미치는 역할을 알아보았다. charge carrier 로 칼슘을 사용하였을 경우에 바륨을 사용하였을 때에 비하여 비활성화 정도가 증가하였으며 이러한 증가는 세포속 $Ca^{2＋}$ Chelator가 11 mM EGTA 로부터 20 mM BAPTA 로 치환되어도 계속 관찰되었다. 비활성화 vs 전압 곡선은 바륨과 칼슘 모두에서 U형이었다. charge carrier 를 칼슘으로 치환시 추가로 유도되는 비활성화 정도는 바륨사용시의 비활성화 정도와 역비례관계를 보여 두 이온에서 같은 기전으로 비활성화가 일어날 가능성을 시사하였다. 이러한 가능성을 지원해 주는 결과로 5초의 긴 저분극 자극시 바륨과 칼슘을 써서 얻은 전류기록은 2중 지수함수로 잘 그려낼 수 있었고, 그 결과 빠른 성분(시정수: -150 ms) 과 느린 성분(시정수 -2500 ms) 를 얻었다. 칼슘이 각각의 성분에 미치는 효과는 각기 달라서 빠른 성분의 amplitude는 증가하였고 느린 성분의 시정수는 빨라졌다. 칼슘에 의해 빠른 성분의 amplitude는 증가하였으므로 이는 더 많은 채널이 빠른 경로로 비활성화되었음을 시사한다. 빠른 성분의 시정수는 변화하지 않았으므로, 이는 비촬성화의 빠른 경로는 칼슘과 바륨에서 같음을 시사하며 즉 비활성화 기전이 칼슘의존성이 아님을 보여주는 증거이다. 그러나 비활성화의 느린 성분은 칼슘에 의해 그 시정수가 빨라졌으므로 칼슘의존성일 가능성이 있다.
