Table 1 Effects of Ang-II superfusion on baro-excited CVLM neurons (n=14)

From: Baro-excited neurons in the caudal ventrolateral medulla (CVLM) recorded using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique

 

Change in membrane potential

Change in frequency of action potential

Increase in neuronal activity (n=10)

+3.8±0.4 mV*

+2.2±0.1 Hz#

Decrease in neuronal activity (n=4)

−4.5±1.4 mV#

−0.8±0.1 Hz

  1. Abbreviations: Ang-II, angiotensin-II; CVLM, caudal ventrolateral medulla.
  2. Values are mean±s.e.m.
  3. *P<0.01 vs. before Ang-II superfusion; #P<0.05 vs. before Ang-II superfusion.
