(14) Iontophoretic application of TTX inside the axon cap, a distinctive neuropil surrounding the initial segment and the axon hillock and circumscribed by a glial border, and at various positions along the lateral dendrite confirmed the Na+-dependency of the action potentials recorded in normal and axotomized cells and further demonstrated that the soma generates the additional spike component in the latter.
