Ca2+ store depletion does not affect TRPC channel activation by kisspeptin. A–C, Representative recordings showing the kisspeptin (Kp-10)-induced inward current after a GnRH neuron had been exposed to thapsigargin (Tg, 1μM) for 10 minutes (A), internally dialyzed with 30μM myo-IP3 (IP3) and 4μM Tg for 13 minutes (B), or internally dialyzed with 2-APB (300μM) for 15 minutes (C). Vhold = −65 mV. D, Summary of the effects of Tg, IP3, and 2-APB on the kisspeptin-induced inward currents. The control represents kisspeptin response in the presence of vehicle. P > .05 (1-way ANOVA).
