Population

Parasympathetic neurones enzymatically isolated from the interatrial septum of bull-frog heart and maintained in short-term (1-10 day) tissue culture.

Intervention

Whole-cell voltage-clamp techniques with various ion replacements and blockers (e.g., TTX, Cd2+, Ni2+, La3+)

Outcome

Voltage-dependent membrane conductances (resting potential, action potentials, Na+ and Ca2+ currents)surrogate

This study characterizes the voltage-dependent sodium and calcium currents in isolated parasympathetic neurones from the bull-frog heart.

Discussion

No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.

Implication

Characterizes ionic currents in bullfrog cardiac neurons; leaves open translation to mammalian autonomic regulation.
