Aluminium-induced changes of fusion pore properties attenuate prolactin secretion in rat pituitary lactotrophs
Hormone secretion is mediated by Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis. The key step of this process consists of the merger of the vesicle and the plasma membranes, leading to the formation of a fusion pore. This is an aqueous channel through which molecules stored in the vesicle lumen exit into the extracell...
