AVP depolarizes GCs and increases the number of APs elicited by injection of a series of positive currents. A, Resting membrane potential recorded from a GC before, during, and after the application of AVP. B, Summary data for AVP-induced depolarization. The empty circles represented the values from individual cells, and the solid symbols were their averages. C, APs elicited by injections of a series of positive currents from 25 to 400 pA in a GC before (left) and during (right) the application of AVP. D, Relationship between the injected currents and the elicited AP numbers from 13 GCs. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001, two-way repeated-measures ANOVA followed by Sidak’s multiple-comparisons test.
