Demonstration of functional Ca2+ transport in mDCT15 cells. A: representative Western blots demonstrating expression of plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase (PMCA)1, Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX)1, calbindin (Calb), transient receptor potential vanilliod (TRPV)5, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) receptor (PTH-R). B: 45Ca2+ uptake in mDCT15 cells under Ca2+-free conditions and with Ca2+ and Ca2+ and 200 nM ruthenium red (RR sens; n = 4). *P < 0.01 compared with Ca2+-free conditions. Solid circles indicate means, shaded circles indicate individual data points, and bars represent SEs.
