Modulation of Pineal Melatonin Synthesis by Glutamate Involves Paracrine Interactions between Pinealocytes and Astrocytes through NF- B Activation

Figure 5

Analysis of intracellular calcium in isolated astrocyte and pinealocyte cultures. Traces of Fluo-4 fluorescence indicate the intracellular calcium transients from single cells. Additions of exogenous glutamate or glutamatergic agonists were performed as indicated by the arrows.
