Abstract
Recent studies have revealed the presence of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors in the secretory granules of endocrine and neuroendocrine cells. This distribution suggests that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-regulated release of granule stores of Ca2+ might facilitate the secretory process. In addition, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors might participate directly in the biogenesis of secretory granules. The presence of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors in synaptic nerve terminals raises the possibility that they might also be involved in the control of neurotransmitter release.Entities:
