Wide-field Fura-2 microfluorimetry data from freshly dissociated mouse DRG neurons. In the absence of external calcium, we do not observe calcium transients in neurons stimulated by brief (30-s) applications of the lysosome disruptor GPN (200 µM) using 1 mM (middle panel) or 10 mM (lower panel) EGTA as external calcium buffer. In the presence of external calcium (upper panel), 3 of 244 neurons showed small and variable responses. These findings are in contrast to small cytosolic calcium transients evoked by 5-min application of GPN (Fig. 3 I), which paralleled the disruption of lysosomes (Fig. 3 G) with a mean time to peak calcium increase of 100 s.
