[Ca(2+) level in the animal blood and their cold resistance].

Administration of small doses of the EDTA decreased by 15-20% the Ca2+ contentn in the blood plasma of rabbits and rats. The decrease coincided with an abrupt stimulation of the thermoregulation system of cooled animals. Restoration of the Ca2+ content in circulating blood coincided in time with repeated suppression of the system's functions. The findings corroborate the theory of a key role of the Ca2+ in sensitivity of the homoiothermal organism to cold and substantiates the method of restoring physiological functions in deep hypothermia without rewarming the body.

[Effect of ammonium ions on calcium release from fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum].

It is established that in AMP deamination by sarcoplasmic reticulum fragments there occurs an intensified release of the previously accumulated calcium. UMP has no noticeable effect on this process. The level of accumulated 45Ca+ in the fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum is decreased when ammonium ions load is introduced into the medium. If the sarcoplasmic reticulum fragments were loaded with 45Ca2+ and then washed off and incubated in the isotonic sucrose solution, the calcium release is more intensified when ammonium ions are introduced into the medium. The results of ultrasound and A23187 treatment of the membranes evidence for the calcium release from the inner space of vesicles.
