Bipolar Cells in the Spotlight Cause for Excitement
(Perron et al., 1999). However, there are relatively few the sensory structures take on one of two alternative fates (Gupta and Rodrigues, 1997; Goulding et al., 2000). experiments in which the comparative potential of different proneural proteins has been analyzed directly. The In conclusion, the identification of amos highlights the importance of proneural proteins in contributing to results ...
متن کاملKinetics of exocytosis in adrenal chromaffin cells.
Upon repetitive or maintained stimulation, chromaffin cells secrete catecholamines initially at a very high rate which then relaxes with multiple kinetic components. The complex kinetics are often modeled as resulting from the successive depletion of several functional pools of secretory granules which may reflect specific protein-mediated steps in granule maturation. The fastest component repr...
متن کاملAdrenal medulla: chromaffin cells as paraneurons.
Adrenal chromaffin cells are typical paraneurons. They are of neural crest origin, secrete catecholamines and produce action potentials. In addition to adrenaline-storing (A) cells and noradrenaline-storing (NA) cells, a third calss of chromaffin cells is distinguishable. They are characterized by the smallness of the secretory granules, and hence are called small-granule chromaffin (SGC) cells...
متن کاملVesicle Pools: Lessons from Adrenal Chromaffin Cells
The adrenal chromaffin cell serves as a model system to study fast Ca2+-dependent exocytosis. Membrane capacitance measurements in combination with Ca2+ uncaging offers a temporal resolution in the millisecond range and reveals that catecholamine release occurs in three distinct phases. Release of a readily releasable (RRP) and a slowly releasable (SRP) pool are followed by sustained release, d...
متن کاملActivity-dependent differential transmitter release in mouse adrenal chromaffin cells.
Chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla are a primary neuroendocrine output of the sympathetic nervous system. When stimulated, they secrete a host of transmitter molecules, including catecholamines and neuropeptides, through the fusion of dense core secretory granules with the cell surface. At basal firing rates, set by the sympathetic tone, chromaffin cells selectively release catecholamines ...
