  • Recordings from each PC (n = 40) were made first in standard saline (2 Ca2+) and then after ∼30 min of perfusion with nominally Ca2+-free saline (0 Ca2+). All entries are expressed as mean ±sd. Resting V M andR N are resting membrane potential and input resistance, respectively. τm is the passive time constant of the membrane measured at resting V M. Fast AHP is the membrane potential reached at the end of fast spike repolarization. ADP is the slow depolarizing potential that follows the fast AHP (see Materials and Methods).

  • * Significantly different (p < 0.05) from control.
