Abstract
Serotonin (5-HT) stimulates aldosterone secretion from the rat adrenal gland through 5-HT(7) receptors. The aim of the present study was to investigate the transduction mechanisms associated with activation of 5-HT(7) receptors in rat glomerulosa cells. The stimulatory effect of 5-HT on aldosterone secretion and cAMP formation was significantly reduced by the 5-HT(7) receptor antagonist LY 215840. Pretreatment of cells with the adenylyl cyclase...
