ABSTRACT:

The model is encoded according to the paper Low dose of dopamine may stimulate prolactin secretion by increasing fast potassium currents Figure5 has been reproduced by MathSBML. One need to change the value of ga in order to get the three correct results.

the xppaut file of the model is avaiable on the following address offered by the author , http://www.math.fsu.edu/%7Ebertram/software/pituitary/JCNS_07.ode

Dopamine (DA) released from the hypothalamus tonically inhibits pituitary lactotrophs. DA (at micromolar concentration) opens potassium channels, hyperpolarizing the lactotrophs and thus preventing the calcium influx that triggers prolactin hormone release. Surprisingly, at concentrations approximately 1000 lower, DA can stimulate prolactin secretion. Here, we investigated whether an increase in a K+ current could mediate this stimulatory effect. We considered the fast K+ currents flowing throug  ...[more]
