Abstract
We have investigated the electrical response of patched GH3 cells to Growth-Hormone Releasing-Hormone (GH-RH). GH-RH (100 nM) enhanced firing frequency of action potentials. This is accompanied by membrane depolarization (5-10 mV) and conductance increase. Voltage clamp studies reveal that GH-RH potentiates calcium inward currents and a calcium-dependent chloride current; transient outward current is diminished. These changes in membrane conductance account for the cytosolic free calcium rise shown by Indo-1 fluorescence measurements.
