Changes in the size of isolated chromaffin granules in ATP-evoked catecholamine release. 1985

A Warashina

The average size of chromaffin granules isolated from bovine adrenal medullae was analyzed by a quasi-elastic laser light scattering method. The granule diameter increased by a factor of 1.3 by addition of Mg-ATP in the medium. The ATP effect was completely suppressed in the presence of an anion transport blocker (SITS), and partly depressed by a proton transport blocker (DCCD).
