Abstract excerpt
Chromogranin A (CgA) and secretogranin II (SgII) are neuroendocrine secretory proteins that participate in regulation of the secretory pathway and also serve as precursors of biologically active peptides. To investigate whether there is a relationship between the expression, distribution, and processing of CgA and SgII and the degree of secretory activity, we employed two melanotrope subpopulations of the...
