Figure 6From: A pyridinium derivative from Red Sea soft corals inhibited voltage-activated potassium conductances and increased excitability of rat cultured sensory neuronesSome DRG neurones under control conditions do not show spike frequency adaptation but fire multiple action potentials during depolarization by 500 ms current commands. This was a different firing pattern to that seen when c.Sg induced multiple fire. A) Voltage trace of control multiple action potential firing neurone. B) Voltage trace of c.Sg-induced multiple firing in the same neurone. C) Over-plot of voltage traces from A and B. In all cases the DRG neurones were held at -70 mV before stimulation.Back to article page
