Whole-cell recordings were made from dissociated bullfrog sympathetic neurons. Tetraethylammonium (30 mM) and apamin (100 nM) were added to the superfusate to eliminate the known calcium-activated potassium currents termed Ic and IAHP. Under these conditions, the action potential carried by calcium ions was followed by a prolonged (10-60 s) after-hyperpolarization. A current component (IAC) underlying the after-hyperpolarization was eliminated by barium (2 mM) and showed voltage-dependence identical to that of a M-type potassium current. I concluded that the after-hyperpolarization is caused not only by IAHP but also by the calcium-dependent potentiation of M-current.
对分离的牛蛙交感神经元进行全细胞记录。向灌流液中加入四乙铵(30 mM)和蜂毒明肽(100 nM),以消除已知的钙激活钾电流,即Ic和IAHP。在这些条件下,由钙离子携带的动作电位之后是一个延长的(10 - 60秒)超极化后电位。超极化后电位的一个电流成分(IAC)被钡(2 mM)消除,并且显示出与M型钾电流相同的电压依赖性。我得出结论,超极化后电位不仅由IAHP引起,还由M电流的钙依赖性增强引起。
