Identification and characterization of Ca2+-activated K+ channels in granulosa cells of the human ovary

BACKGROUND: Granulosa cells (GCs) represent a major endocrine compartment of the ovary producing sex steroid hormones. Recently, we identified in human GCs a Ca(2+)-activated K(+ )channel (K(Ca)) of big conductance (BK(Ca)), which is involved in steroidogenesis. This channel is activated by intraova...
