cellular
• cultured cerebellar granule neurons are more resistant to cell death induced by oxidative stress

endocrine/exocrine glands
• reduced exocytosis in chromaffin cells when stimulated with 70mM potassium for 1 minute
• initial rates of exocytosis normal for 5-10 seconds but declines rapidly thereafter
• increased amounts of catecholamine released for each fusion event involving vesicles and the cell membrane
• foot signals resulting from fusion pore formation lasted longer and resulted in increased neurotransmitter release
