Abstract
1. This study demonstrated that the modification of calcium concentrations ([Ca2 +]) could severely affect the viability of human retinal pigment epithelial (ARPE19) cells. 2. Pharmacological agents with varying mechanisms of action: verapamil (VP), diltiazem (DIL), caffeine (CF), papaverine (PA), forskolin (FSK), ryanodine (RYN), thapsigargin (THG), and cyclosporin A (CysA) were used to evaluate the effect of modifying cytosolic Ca2 + on the...
