The results showed that the response amplitude declined and the response latency prolonged when relay cells were pattern-adapted in dLGN, like the similar findings in visual cortex. However, in contrast to the result in cortex, the response phase of relay cells advanced. This implies that an inhibition with relatively long latency may participate in the pattern adaptation of dLGN cells and the adaptation in dLGN may be via a mechanism different from that of visual cortex.展开更多

Pyramidal cells in the cerebral cortex are known to have fast, medium and slow AHPs. It is commonly accepted that the fast AHP (fAHP) is mediated by a kind of C- or BK-K<sup>+</sup> channels. The fAHP is characterized by a short duration of about 20 ms, its remarkable voltage dependence and sensitivity to low concentration (【1 mmol/L) of Tetraethylammonium (TEA).The mAHP results from activation of AHP- or SK-K<sup>+</sup> channels and has a long duration over 200 ms. It is poorly voltage-dependent and blocked by Apamin, but not by TEA.展开更多
