Example Sentences:
(1) It is suitable either for brief sampling of AP durations when recording with microelectrodes, which may impale cells intermittently, or for continuous monitoring, as with suction electrodes on intact beating hearts in situ.
(2) The impaled cardiac cells which generated transitional action potentials were identified in serial sections and studied with the light and the electron microscopes.
(3) Impalements of sufficient quality to demonstrate inhibition by carotid baroreceptor stimulation (blind sac inflation) were obtained for 9 cells.
(4) Impalement of identified principal cells from the serosal side with single-barrelled conventional or double-barrelled Cl(-)-sensitive microelectrodes was performed at x500 magnification.
(5) Electrical stimulation of the arcuate nucleus did not elicit any detectable synaptic response in impaled tanycytes, so that the functional significance of synaptoid contacts between neuroendocrine neurons and the postsynaptic tanycytes is not yet apparent.
(6) cell volume changes); luminal and contraluminal cell borders are well resolved for controlled microelectrode impalement.
(7) One of these interneurons was impaled intracellularly, characterized physiologically, and then labeled by intracellular horseradish peroxidase (HRP) injection to examine the distribution and ultrastructure of synapses.
(8) Application of TEA in the presence of bicuculline (10(-5) M) increased the amplitude and duration of the DS in neurons impaled with D890-containing electrodes.
(9) The relatively rare occurrence of this type of oscillation in impaled neurons, as compared with extracellular recordings in the same nucleus or to intracellular recordings in other dorsal thalamic nuclei, suggests that the interplay between the two intrinsic currents generating delta oscillation is particularly critical in lateral geniculate cells.
(10) The neurons are stimulated by a microelectrode impaled in the soma.
(11) Smooth muscle cells were impaled near the myenteric border between the circular and longitudinal layers.
(12) It is concluded that the leak impalement artifact is so significant in micro-electrode recordings from hamster eggs that it prevents routine reliable potential measurements.
(13) Intradendritic impalements were obtained to more accurately assess changes in the intracellular EPSP following HFS.
(14) Biological (stratum corneum) and artificial (cation-exchange resin beads, Bio-Rad AG 50W-X2) ion exchangers were impaled by glass microelectrodes filled with KCl solution.
(15) During whole-cell recordings, however, regular potential oscillations were observed in the cells that had not been impaled with a conventional microelectrode, as far as the Ca2+ buffer was not strong in the pipette solution.
(16) Following impalement with intracellular electrodes, the large calyciform nerve terminals innervating chick ciliary ganglion neurons exhibit pronounced inward rectification upon hyperpolarization that increases with increasing current strength.
(17) Human red cells in modified Ringer solution were impaled individually with 3 M KCl-filled glass microelectrodes.
(18) The physiological properties of these double-labelled corticospinal neurons were indistinguishable from those of comparable neurons which were impaled with biocytin-containing electrodes without prior RLM-labelling, and neurons studied with potassium acetate-filled electrodes in similar areas.
(19) This confirms (i) the intracellular location of the microelectrode and the absence of impalement artifacts, and (ii) the ineffectiveness of ADH upon the electromotive forces of the inner border.
(20) To suppress contractile responses and thereby facilitate sustained impalements, the muscle strips were bathed with a hypertonic solution containing sucrose.
