Low extracellular Ca2+ activates a transient Cl- current in chicken ovarian granulosa cells

The effects of low Ca2+ on ion currents in hen ovarian granulosa cells were examined. A fast activating and inactivating trasient outward current (TOC) and a slowly activating outward current (SOC) could be observed.
