We have synthesized BiNiX, a caged methylxanthine agonist for the ryanodine receptor (RyR) the major calcium channel that mediates Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ stores in electrically excitable cells. BiNiX is easily loaded into living cells through incubation with its acetoxymethyl (AM) ester. Delivery of focused UV light pulses to the loaded cell releases paraxanthine focally and rapidly to activate RyRs to release Ca2+, thus elevating ...
