Slowing effects of dopamine and calcium-channel blockers on frequency of sodium spikes in rat pars intermedia cells
AUTOR(ES)
Douglas, W. W.
RESUMO
1. Spontaneous discharge of action potentials (Na spikes) in cells isolated from rat pars intermedia was slowed or arrested by Co2+, Ni2+ or Mn2+, which block voltage-dependent Ca channels in these cells. The amplitude of persisting spikes was undiminished. The effects resembled those of dopamine.
