Comparison of the decay time courses of AP-induced Ca2+ transients and the accompanying IAHPs and effects of ryanodine and thapsigargin on them. (A) Effects of ryanodine on the Ca2+ transient within 2 μm from the plasma membrane (a) and the corresponding IAHP (b and c) induced by 10 spikes. Gray and black traces are the records before and 10 min after the application of ryanodine (10 μM). IAHPs are shown in different time scales (b and c). The time scale of b is the same as that of the Ca2+ transient in a. Each of smooth lines on the Ca2+ transients and IAHPs shows the result of double exponential fitting to the decay phase of each trace after the end of current stimuli. (B) Effects of thapsigargin (1 μM) on the Ca2+ transient (a) and the IAHP (b and c) induced by 10 spikes. Other explanations are the same as those in A.
