What effect does Caly A have on intracellular calcium levels in fibroblasts?

Label:chem

Topic
A study investigates the impact of Caly A on intracellular calcium levels in Hs-68 fibroblasts and MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells.
Answer
Acute application of 0.3 nM Caly A blocks serum-induced increases in intracellular calcium levels in Hs-68 fibroblasts but not in MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells. This suggests that Caly A selectively blocks calcium influx in fibroblasts.
