Liberators of NO exert a dual effect on renin secretion from isolated mouse renal juxtaglomerular cells [PDF]
, 1993 This study aimed to examine the role of nitric oxide (NO) in the regulation of renin secretion from renal juxtaglomerular (JG) cells. Using primary cultures of mouse renal JG cells, we found that sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and 3-morpholino-sydnonimin ...

Lack of direct evidence for a functional role of voltage-operated calcium channels in juxtaglomerular cells [PDF]
, 1990 In this study we have examined the role of voltage-gated calcium channels in the regulation of calcium in juxtaglomerular cells. Using a combination of patch-clamp and single-cell calcium measurement we obtained evidence neither for voltage-operated ...
