Noradrenaline upregulates T‐type calcium channels in rat pinealocytes [PDF]
The Journal of Physiology, 2015 Key points The mammalian pineal gland is a neuroendocrine organ that responds to circadian and seasonal rhythms. Its major function is to secrete melatonin as a hormonal night signal in response to nocturnal delivery of noradrenaline from sympathetic neurons. Culturing rat pinealocytes in noradrenaline for 24 h induced a low‐voltage activated transient
