Abstract
In dissociated neurons of rat superior cervical ganglion (SCG), noradrenaline (NA) and acetylcholine (ACh) suppressed Ca2+ currents elicited by depolarizations to 0 mV from -60 mV. With GTP-gamma-S in patch electrodes, ACh and NA caused persistent inhibition of Ca2+ currents. Pretreatment of SCG cells with pertussis toxin abolished the action of ACh but not of NA. The results suggest that ACh and NA reduce the Ca2+ currents in SCG cells through different G proteins.Entities:
