Mechanisms of depolarizing inhibition at the crayfish giant motor synapse. I. Electrophysiology.

abstract：:The pacemaker current of a bursting neuron of Helix pomatia was investigated using voltage-clamp and pressure-injection techniques. In the steady state the net membrane current was zero near threshold of the action potential at -45 mV. Negative to this potential the membrane current was inward and steady. During burst...
