Calcium and calmodulin mediation of growth hormone-releasing hormone release from the rat hypothalamus in vitro.
A major role for Ca2+ and calmodulin in stimulus-secretion coupling has been suggested for several neuropeptides; however, the cellular mechanisms of GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) release have been little investigated so far. We have used a previously validated acute rat hypothalamic explant system in...
