Abstract

Experiments using intracellular recording techniques were performed on rat hippocampal neurones in vitro, to study the discharge properties of these cells. When CA 1 pyramidal cells were excited by injecting long depolarizing current pulses (approximately 600‐800 ms), they responded with an initial rapid action potential discharge which slowed, or accommodated, and then stopped after 200‐300 ms. The train of action potentials was followed by a hyperpolarization which was due primarily to calcium‐activated potassium conductance (GK(Ca]. The amplitude of this hyperpolarization increased with an increasing number of action potentials in the initial discharge. Blocking the calcium‐activated potassium conductance, by injecting EGTA into the cell, by bathing the cell in cadmium, a calcium channel blocker, or by bathing the cell in calcium‐free medium, reduced the after‐hyperpolarization (a.h.p.) and accommodation such that the frequency of action potential discharge increased and the duration of this discharge was prolonged. Blocking the calcium‐activated potassium conductance had a greater effect on discharge frequency later in the action potential train, as late interspike intervals were shortened more than early ones by the application of cadmium or of calcium‐free medium. This was presumably because the calcium‐activated potassium conductance was more developed later in the train. Accommodation was not completely abolished in the absence of calcium and presence of cadmium, suggesting that other factors, in addition to calcium‐activated potassium conductance, contributed to this process. This remaining accommodation was reduced by low doses of carbachol, suggesting that the M‐current also plays a role in accommodation. We conclude that accommodation of the action potential discharge of hippocampal pyramidal cells may be regulated by at least two potassium currents: the calcium‐activated potassium current and the M‐current. Both of these currents are turned on during excitation of the neurone and act in an inhibitory manner on that neurone to limit further action potential discharge.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
