“In cortical …, AlCl3 (10-500 microM) inhibited hydrolysis of [3H]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) by PiPLC in a concentration-dependent manner with an estimated IC50 of 100 microM. The effects of AlCl3 on modulation of IP accumulation by extracellular Ca2+ and PKC were also examined as potential mechanisms.”
