The binaural auditory pathway: membrane currents limiting multiple action potential generation in the rat medial nucleus of the trapezoid body

In this paper we describe the membrane currents of neurons in the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB), which serves as an inverting relay in the binaural auditory pathway. In the following paper (Forsythe 4AP blocked a fast after-hyperpolarization, increased AP duration, and converted the single AP response on depolarization to a train of action potentials.
