15 Hz Control (n = 5) | 315 ± 91.1 | 38.55 ± 7.35 | 2.57 ± 0.49 | 0.81 ± 0.01 |

0.5 Hz Control (n = 17) | 572 ± 29.8 | 4.86 ± 1.63 | 9.72 ± 3.26 | 0.84 ± 0.18 |

AP, action potential. Evoked ICa is lower at 15 Hz than at 0.5 Hz presumably due to activity dependent inhibition of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (Currie & Fox, 1996, 1997, 2000)
