...The effect of inhibitory nerve stimulation on the pacemaker activity has been described in a previous paper (Watanabe, Obara, and Akiyama, 1968)....

...The anatomy of the preparation is described in detail in previous papers (Watanabe, Obara, Akiyama, and Yumoto, 1967; Watanabe, Obara, and Akiyama, 1968)....

...Neurons in the pacemaker region are electrotonically connected (Watanabe, Obara, Akiyama, and Yumoto, 1967) and therefore potential changes observed in one soma are influenced by those in neighboring somata....
[...]
...We consider the small prepotential to be a spike of dendrites of the penetrated neuron, as has been discussed in a previous paper (Watanabe, Obara, Akiyama, and Yumoto, 1967)....

...Apart from the stimulus artefact and the externally recorded axon spikes, the appearance of the small prepotential (see Watanabe, Obara, Akiyama, and Yumoto, 1967, p. 831) sometimes posed a confusing problem....

...In the motoneurons of toads and cats, direct stimulation produced a spike in the initial segment before the soma-dendritic membrane was excited (Araki and Otani, 1955; Frank and Fuortes, 1956; Coombs, Curtis, and Eccles, 1957)....

...This property is observed in many other nerve cells, for example, the toad or cat motoneurons (Araki and Otani, 1955; Coombs, Curtis, and Eccles, 1957), the stretch receptor cell of a lobster (Edwards and Ottoson, 1958), although there are some exceptional neurons, for example, the supramedullary cells of the puffer (Bennett, Crain, and Grundfest, 1959)....
