Figure 6. Effects of (±) SKF83959 on the decay of the delayed rectifier K+ current in rat hippocampal neurons.

Figure 6

(A) Superimposed traces of the delayed rectifier K+ current (I K) in a representative neuron prior to and during superfusion with (±) SKF83959 (100 µM). (B) The trace with (±) SKF83959 in (A) is scaled up. (C) Decay time constants of I K prior to and during superfusion with (±) SKF83959 (100 µM). n = 7, *P<0.01 versus the control. (D) Tail current traces evoked at −40 mV after a 500-ms depolarizing steps to +40 mV prior to and during superfusion with (±) SKF83959 (100 µM). Similar results were obtained in 3 neurons.
