“…Even if the same protocols (time, sequence, washing, supply, etc.) were used, as in the case of 5-HT (Liscia et al, 2012), we cannot exclude that the receptor kinetics elicited by Phote-HrTH are different from those of 5-HT in our previous paper (Liscia et al, 2012). Further investigation is needed to better clarify the relative contribution of calcium release and/or calcium influx plus the receptor kinetics involved in the two neuro-hormonal transduction mechanisms (i.e., 5-HT and Phote-HrTH).…”
