  • To distinguish between these two models, the effect of MTX on [Ca 2+] i , vital dye uptake and LDH release was examined in bovine aortic endothelial cells, a cell line particularly sensitive to the cytolytic effects of MTX.

  • Recent studies have shown that maitotoxin (MTX), a potent cytolytic agent isolated from the dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus toxicus, is an important new molecular tool for the study of oncotic (necrotic) cell death [ 1 2 ] . In a variety of cell types, MTX initiates a cell death cascade that involves a sequence of cellular events essentially identical to those activated by stimulation of purinergic receptors of the P2Z/P2X 7 type.

  • Initially, MTX causes a graded increase in cytosolic free Ca 2+concentration ([Ca 2+] i ). This is followed closely in time by the opening of cytolytic/oncotic pores (COP) that allow the exchange of large organic molecules of molecular weight less than ~800 Daltons across the plasma membrane.

  • An intact actin cytoskeleton is required for sustained signals leading to T cell activation [ 1 ] . T helper and cytolytic effector cells reorient their intracellular components for vectorial secretion of cytokines [ 2 ] or cytolytic components [ 3 ] via cytoskeletal dependent mechanisms.
