Calcium uptake in permeabilized astrocytes and neurons in the absence (top traces) or presence (bottom traces) of 2 μM CsA. Extramitochondrial calcium was measured by Calcium Green fluorescence. Arrows indicate additions of CaCl2. Calcium Green fluorescence increased with each addition of calcium and decreased as the calcium was sequestered by the mitochondria. 107 cells/experiment, 75 nmoles of calcium/addition. Astrocytes took up more calcium/cell than neurons and the uptake capacity of astrocytes, but not neurons, was increased by CsA
