The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanisms regulating endothelin-1 (ET-1) secretion in rat thyroid FRTL-5 cells. ET-1 was found to be secreted after stimulation with adenosine and ATP. The release of ET-1 was sensitive to pertussis toxin, indicating a role of G-proteins in the st

We investigated the mechanism of phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2 ) activation in response to the P2 receptor agonist ATP in rat thyroid FRTL-5 cells. The PLA 2 activity was determined by measuring the release of [ 3 H]-arachidonic acid (AA) from prelabeled cells. ATP evoked a dose-and time-dependent AA rel
