FIG. 8.
Intrinsic properties of neurons expressing dTRPA1 at 21–22°C. A: whole cell patch recordings of MNISN-Is motor neurons responding to 1-s, 60-pA current injections. UAS control on left, GAL4 control at center, and GAL4 + UAS on right. Note similarities in spike amplitude and frequency. B and C: average resting potential and input resistance (respectively) in each genotype. D: average firing rate as a function of injected current (1-s pulses, Vrest held at −50 mV). Data are presented as means ± SE. *P < 0.05 (ANOVA with Bonferroni post hoc test).
