Ca2+ responses following RP105 ligation. (A) Splenocytes from wild-type or CD19–/– mice were loaded with 1 μM indo-1-am ester and stained with FITC-labeled anti-B220 mAbs. B cells were examined for relative [Ca2+]i levels by flow cytometry after gating on the B220+ population of cells. (B-C) Wild-type B cells were pretreated with 1, 10, or 25 nM of Wortmannin for 10 minutes (B), and wild-type and CD19–/– B cells were pretreated with 15 μM of LY294002 for 10 minutes (C). Cells were stimulated by anti-RP105 Abs (5 μg/mL) as indicated by arrows. An increase in [Ca2+]i over time is shown as an increase in the ratio of indo-1 fluorescence. Results represent those obtained in at least 3 experiments.
