Rapid Ca(2+) signaling induced by Bisphenol A in cultured rat hippocampal neurons.
OBJECTIVES: Bisphenol A (BPA) is a typical endocrine disrupter. We investigated the mechanisms of rapid Ca(2+) signaling induced by a low dose BPA application in cultured hippocampal neurons.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The primary culture of hippocampal neurons were prepared from postnatal 3 to 5-day-old rats. Cells .....
