Abstract excerpt
Modulation of secretion via G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) serves an important regulatory function in neuronal and nonneuronal secretory cells. Most secretory cells possess voltage-gated calcium channels, share homologues of the core complex of three proteins (the SNAREs) that constitute the secretory apparatus, and are modulated by GPCR activation. Activators of GPCRs generally inhibit the release of...
