Data are means ± SE; n is cell number. Steady-state inactivation (SSI) and activation (SSA) parameters were obtained from INa data fit to Eqs. 2 and 3 (materials and methods), respectively. We did not find statistically significant differences between parameters within the experimental groups as evaluated by ANOVA followed by Bonferroni's post hoc test. nsOligo, nonsense oligonucleotide; asOligo, antisense oligonucleotide; V1/2A and kA, midpoint and slope of Boltzmann function A curve; V1/2G and kG, midpoint and slope of conductance curve.
