A representative trace of (A) the effect of depolarizing current pulse injections on the membrane potential and (B) the effect of a hyperpolarizing current pulse injection on the membrane potential of a cNTS neuron from a neonatal rat. The top trace shows the membrane potential recorded in response to each pulse injection and the bottom trace shows the pulse injection protocol. Depolarizing current injections were used to determine the rheobase while the hyperpolarizing current pulse was used to determine the capacitance and Tau. (C) The mean (±SEM) values for these basic neuronal electrophysiological properties are shown for CS and NCS cNTS neurons from Control and Hyperoxia rats both in aCSF and in SNB.
