Role of cGMP in isolated rat parotid acinar cells
JA Mangos
The role of cGMP as the intracellular mediator of the activation of cholinergic receptors in the secretory cells of the rat parotid gland was investigated in vitro using isolated rat parotid acinar cells. It was demonstrated that this cyclic nucleotide is involved in the intracellular translation of activation of muscarinic cholinergic receptors in these cells.
