Characteristics of exocytosis from WT and CgA-KO mice obtained with patch amperometry
| WT | n events/cells | CgA-KO | n events/cells | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q (pC) | 1.81 ± 0.09 | 296/15 | 1.31 ± 0.09* | 171/10 |
| C (fF) | 0.52 ± 0.02 | 296/15 | 0.58 ± 0.03 | 171/10 |
| Q/C (m) | 0.87 ± 0.06 | 296/15 | 0.53 ± 0.02* | 171/10 |
The CA concentration (expressed in molars) was the ratio between Q (moles) and vesicle volume from capacitance (C) changes.
