Modulation of cyclic AMP accumulation in GH3 cells by a phorbol ester and thyroliberin.

abstract：:In a primary cell culture system of fetal rat brain, the calmodulin-dependent protein-kinase IV (CaMKIV) could be induced by the thyroid hormone T3 in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, provided the tissue was excised not later than day 15 of gestation (E15) (Krebs et al., J.
