title: Modulation of the slow inward Ca2+ current by adrenaline in bullfrog sympathetic ganglion cells.
abstract: The slow inward current, which is carried almost exclusively by Ca2+, was disclosed by voltage-clamp study on bullfrog sympathetic ganglion cells in Ringer solution. This current was confirmed to be markedly depressed by the action of adrenaline, suggesting that adrenaline modulates the Ca2+ influx of ganglion cells under physiological conditions.
