Membrane potential of lateral geniculate body relay neurons was monitored in chronic cats during the sleep-waking cycle. Neurons were tonically depolarized throughout paradoxical (P) sleep and the maximal level of polarization occurred during slow (S) sleep (mean difference of membrane potential between S and P sleep: + 10.2 +/- 1.3 mV, n = 6, range: 8-12 mV). Some features of the spontaneous activity of S and P sleep are briefly discussed in relation to the level of membrane potential. In particular it is suggested that the phasic depolarizations underlying the bursts of action potentials during S sleep, and which are reproduced retinal cell axons impinging upon the hyperpolarized membrane.
在睡眠-觉醒周期中，对慢性猫外侧膝状体中继神经元的膜电位进行了监测。在整个异相（P）睡眠期间，神经元持续去极化，最大极化水平出现在慢波（S）睡眠期间（S睡眠和P睡眠之间膜电位的平均差异：+10.2±1.3 mV，n = 6，范围：8 - 12 mV）。结合膜电位水平简要讨论了S睡眠和P睡眠自发活动中的一些特征。特别指出，S睡眠期间动作电位爆发背后的相位性去极化，是由撞击超极化膜的视网膜细胞轴突重现的。
