1 Somatostatin (SRIF) inhibits GH release from rat somatotropes by reducing adenylate cyclase (AC) activity and the free cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). Calcium somatostatin Sus scrofa
2 Both 10(-7) and 10(-15) M SRIF increased cAMP, IP turnover, and [Ca(2+)](i) in HD cells. Cyclic AMP somatostatin Sus scrofa
3 Therefore, SRIF stimulates GH secretion from cultured porcine somatotrope subpopulations through an AC/cAMP pathway-dependent mechanism that is seemingly independent of net increases in IP turnover or [Ca(2+)](i). Cyclic AMP somatostatin Sus scrofa
