Canonical Transient Receptor Potential Channels Expression Is Elevated in a Porcine Model of Metabolic Syndrome
13 Feb 2009
Abstract excerpt
Plasma epinephrine and heart rate are elevated in metabolic syndrome, suggesting enhanced catecholamine secretion from the adrenal medulla. Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels are implicated in mediating hormone-induced Ca(2+) influx and catecholamine secretion in adrenomedullary chromaffin cells. We studied the pattern of TRPC expression in the pig adrenal medulla and investigated whether...
