Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of repetitive firing behaviour from voltage clamp data on an isolated neurone soma
J. A. Connor,Charles F. Stevens +1 more
TL;DR: Membrane parameters of an isolated neural cell body have been determined by voltage clamp analysis and data are expressed as membrane ion‐specific conductances, leak conductance, and capacitance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activity-dependent excitability changes in normal and demyelinated rat spinal root axons.
Hugh Bostock,Peter Grafe +1 more
TL;DR: The post‐tetanic depression that can follow continuous trains of impulses was attributed to the combination of increased threshold and enhanced superexcitable period due to hyperpolarization, not due to a membrane depolarization induced by extracellular potassium accumulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrogenic Suppression of Automaticity in Sheep and Dog Purkinje Fibers
TL;DR: The results suggest that driving ventricular Purkinje fibers at a rate higher than their intrinsic rate causes an initial loss of K+ and the activation of an electrogenic Na+ pump, which is the major mechanism responsible for overdrive suppression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrophysiology of the Sodium-Potassium-ATPase in Cardiac Cells
TL;DR: This review summarizes and discusses the results obtained from I(p) measurements in isolated cardiac cells, and offers new exciting insights into the voltage and ionic dependence of the Na(+)-K(+) pump activity, its effect on membrane potential, and its modulation by hormones, transmitters, and drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Post‐tetanic hyperpolarization and electrogenic Na pump in stretch receptor neurone of crayfish
S. Nakajima,K. Takahashi +1 more
TL;DR: Two types of after‐potentials in the stretch receptor neurone of crayfish are described and it is shown that the after-potentials of this neurone are related to E.1.

The hyperpolarization which follows activity in mammalian non-medullated fibres
J. M. Ritchie,R. W. Straub +1 more
TL;DR: In the present experiments the post-tetanic hyperpolarization has been studied and its production has been shown to be closely linked to the specific mechanism for the extrusion of intracellular sodium ions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The positive and negative heat production associated with a nerve impulse.
TL;DR: The ‘initial’ heat production of a non-medullated nerve (Maia) has been reinvestigated with more rapid recording equipment than was previously available and a positive and negative heat production was observed, which may be associated with the active phase of the impulse.
Journal ArticleDOI
The blood pressure and the pressure pulses in the arterial arches of the frog (Rana temporaria) and the toad (Bufo bufo).
TL;DR: It was considered that useful information might be obtained by the use of these manometers for measuring vascular pressures in the frog and toad and thereby throwing some light on this problem.
