Phytohemagglutinin (PHA) stimulation of human peripheral blood lymphoc
ytes (HPBL) rapidly increases Ca-45(2+) uptake into intracellular pool
s. Detectable increase in Ca-45(2+) uptake occurred only on exposure t
o mitogenic lectins but not with non-mitogenic lectins. However, intra
cellular free Ca2+ concentration [(Ca2+)i] increased comparably on exp
osure to either mitogenic or non-mitogenic lectins.
