Glutamate receptor or mitochondrial calcium uptake are not involved in the effect of DEX or CORT on [Ca2+]c in neurons and astrocytes. Incubation cells with MK801 did not change the effect of DEX on [Ca2+]c (A). (B) Changes in Δψm were measured using Rh123 in dequench mode (the loss of potential is seen as an increase in fluorescence). Corticosterone (1 μM) or DEX (1 μM) induced mild depolarisation of Δψm in both cell types. The Rh123 fluorescence signal in these traces is normalised between zero, representing the resting Rh123 fluorescence and 100, representing the maximal increase Rh123 fluorescence in response to complete mitochondrial depolarisation by 1 μM FCCP.
