Electrophysiological Characterization of Nicotine-Induced Excitation of Dopaminergic Neurons in the Rat Substantia Nigra
ABSTRACT: The electrophysiological characteristics of nicotine-induced excitation of dopaminergic neurons in the rat substantia nigra was investigated using the whole-cell patch clamp technique under the voltage-clamp mode. Nicotine (0.01 – 100 μM) induced inward currents corresponding to nicotine-i...
