The secretion of α-MSH from Xenopus melanotropes involves calcium influx through ω-conotoxin-sensitive voltage-operated calcium channels

The secretory activity of endocrine cells largely depends on the concentration of free cytosolic calcium. We have studied the mechanisms that are involved in supplying the calcium necessary for the secretion of alpha-melanophore-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) from melanotrope cells in the pituitary...
