Abstract
Measurements of transmembrane potential, membrane resistance, and membrane capacitance in cells of the rat adenohypophysis show these parameters to be significantly lower than those for neuronal cells. The examination of a relatively pure population of ‘hypersecreting’ thyrotrophic cells, produced by the chronic adminstration of propylthiouracil, resulted in a significant change in the mean amplitude of the transmembrane potential, but no significant changes in the other membrane electrical parameters.
