Augmentation of NaP at single pre-BötC neuron level by cellular hypoxia induced with NaCN. A, Ramp I–V relations (Leak subtracted) of a pre-BötC intrinsically bursting neuron showing partial block of NaP by 5 nm bath-applied TTX and subsequent NaP augmentation by bath-applied NaCN (1 mm). B, Histograms summarizing gNaP and gLeak values after partial NaP block with TTX (left histograms) and subsequent augmentation of NaP by NaCN (right); gNaP could be almost restored (average of 80% of control values; n = 8 neurons) by NaCN, whereas gLeak was unaffected.
