Outward currents in Drosophila larval neurons: dunce lacks a maintained outward current component downregulated by cAMP.
Outward current modulation by cAMP was investigated in wild type (wt) and dunce (dnc) Drosophila larval neurons. dnc is deficient in a cAMP phosphodiesterase and has altered memory. Outward current modulation by cAMP was investigated by acute or chronic exposure to cAMP analogs. The analysis included a scrutiny of outward current modulation by cAMP in neurons from the mushroom bodies (mrb). In ...
متن کاملTransient Outward Current?
To gain insight into the molecular basis of cardiac repolarization, we have expressed K' channels cloned from ventricular myocardium in Xenopus oocytes. A recently identified human cardiac K' channel isoform (human Kvl.4) has properties similar to the 4-aminopyridine-sensitive calcium-insensitive component of the cardiac transient outward current. However, these channels recovered from inactiva...
متن کاملTransient outward potassium current in ICC.
Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are the pacemakers of the gut, initiating slow-wave activity. Several ion channels have been identified that contribute to the depolarization phase of the slow wave. Our aim was to contribute to knowledge about the identity and role of ICC potassium channels in pacemaking. Here we describe a transient outward potassium current in cell-attached patches of ICC. T...
متن کاملRole of the Transient Outward Current
Background. Acute ischemia is known to produce more severe electrophysiological disturbances in canine ventricular epicardium than endocardium, although the mechanism for the differential sensitivity is still unresolved. Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of a prominent transient outward current (It.) in ventricular epicardium but not endocardium. The present study was designed to te...
متن کاملOutward sodium current in beating heart cells.
This article is a study of the fast Na current during action potentials. We have investigated the outward Na current (Mazzanti, M., and L.J. DeFelice. 1987. Biophys. J. 52:95-100) in more detail, and we have asked whether it goes through the same channels associated with the rapid depolarization phase of action potentials. We address the question by patch clamping single, spontaneously beating,...
