The function of low voltage-activated T-type Ca2+ channels in ACTH-stimulated cortisol production by bovine adrenal zona fasciculata cells (AZF) was explored in patch clamp and secretion studies. Nearly all AZF cells expressed only a low voltage-activated T-type Ca2+ current (IT)

We examined the effects of removing extracellular Ca2+ (Ca2+e), depleting intracellular Ca2+ (Ca2+i), inhibiting cAMP-dependent calmodulin, and blocking voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels on the secretion of ACTH by perifused dispersed rat anterior pituitary cells. The cells were stimulated with synthetic arginine
