Extracellular Ca2+ (1.5 mmol/liter) enhanced the hCG (50 microg/liter)-induced increases in StAR messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein levels (1.7 +/- 0.3-fold; 4 h), as monitored by quantitative RT-PCR and immunoblotting.

6) Ca uptake into corpora lutea cells increases according to the concentration of HCG until it reaches a plateau at 10(-7) g/ml HCG.
This acceleration by HCG is affected by Ca and is remarkably inhibited by verapamil.
