Vesicle size determines unitary exocytic properties and their sensitivity to sphingosine

Neuroendocrine cells contain small and large vesicles, but the functional significance of vesicle diameter is unclear. We studied unitary exocytic events of prolactin-containing vesicles in lactotrophs by monitoring discrete steps in membrane capacitance. In the presence of sphingosine, which recrui...
