摘要
1. 1. We developed an isolated spinal cell preparation from adult bullfrogs. 2. 2. The average resting membrane potential was - 60mV, and an action potential was activated by positive current injection. 3. 3. The cells retained their tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na+ channels and at least two kinetically different types of K+ channel. 4. 4. Under K+-free conditions, responses to GABA were blocked by bicuculline while responses to glycine, taurine or β-alanine were blocked by strychnine. 5. 5. The potency of excitatory amino acids decreased in the order: kainic acid > glutamate > NMDA. 6. 6. These studies demonstrated that the isolated cells are applicable for electrophysiological and pharmacological investigations. © 1990.
