Calcium-activated potassium channels were expressed in Xenopus oocytes by injection of
RNA transcribed in vitro from complementary DNAs derived from the s/o locus of Drosophila …

The technique of deep brain stimulation (DBS) has become a preferred surgical choice for
the treatment of advanced Parkinson's disease. The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is presently …

1 Whole‐cell patch‐clamp recordings were made from subthalamic nucleus (STN) neurones
in brain slices from rats. Stimulation with bipolar electrodes evoked synaptic currents …

The Slowpoke locus of Drosophila melanogaster encodes a family of alternatively spliced
mRNAs which encode large conductance calcium-activated potassium channels. Variability …

1 Patch pipettes were used to record whole‐cell currents under voltage clamp in substantia
nigra zona reticulata (SNR) neurones in the rat midbrain slice. Bipolar electrodes evoked …

The subthalamic nucleus (STN) plays an important role in movement control by exerting its
excitatory influence on the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNR), a major output structure of …

We used whole-cell recordings to compare currents evoked by glutamate and GABA receptor
agonists in subthalamic nucleus neurons located ipsilateral and contralateral to unilateral 6…

We used whole‐cell patch recordings in current clamp to investigate the ionic dependence
of burst firing induced by N‐methyl‐d‐aspartate (NMDA) in neurons of the subthalamic …

Excessive burst firing of action potentials in subthalamic nucleus (STN) neurons has been
correlated with the bradykinesia and rigidity seen in Parkinson's disease. Consequently, there …

Presynaptic modulation of synaptic transmission in rat subthalamic nucleus (STN) neurons
was investigated using whole‐cell patch‐clamp recordings in brain slices. Evoked …
