TREK-1 activation decreases intracellular Ca2+ (iCa) concentrations in HO-exposed primary mouse AT2 cells: (A,B) Representative curves of Ca2+-sensitive Fluo-4 assays showing that HO-exposed AT2 cells contain higher iCa concentrations than RA-exposed cells, as indicated by an increase in fluorescence values (purple arrows on Y-axes). TREK-1 activation with BL1249 has no effect on iCa concentrations in RA-exposed cells, but decreases iCa levels in HO-exposed cells (*BL1249 compared to no drug/vehicle control, p ≤ 0.05). A summary of n = 6 independent experiments is shown in C; data are represented as Box-Whisker plots with medians, 1st and 3rd quartiles, and max and min values; ^compared to room air exposed AT2 cells; p ≤ 0.05, individual experiments were run in triplicates.
