abstract：:1. Whole cell patch-clamp techniques, combined with direct visualization of neurons, were used to study voltage-dependent potassium currents in layer 1 neurons and layer II/III pyramidal cells. 2. In the presence of tetrodotoxin, step depolarizations evoked an outward current. This current had a complex waveform and a...
