description The effect of nitric oxide donors on intracellular calcium concentration [Ca2+](i) was studied in anterior pituitary cells using ratiometric FURA 2 fluorescence measurements. Sodium nitroprusside (NP) induced a transient decrease [Ca2+](i), after which [Ca2+](i) returned to, or even increased over basal values. S-Nitroso glutathione (GSNO) induced a similar decrease.

Interestingly, in calcium free buffer there was a significant stimulatory effect of NP, which was partially blunted by thapsigargin. We conclude that NO donors modify [Ca2+](i) in anterior pituitary cells. The action is biphasic, with an initial decrease in [Ca2+](i) probably related to a decrease of Ca2+ influx through VDCC, and an increase evidenced in calcium free buffer in which the inhibitory component is absent, and partially depends on thapsigargin sensitive calcium stores.
