Abstract excerpt
To analyze the voltage-dependent ionic conductances of putative GABAergic amacrine cells developing in vitro, whole cell patch clamp recordings were carried out on identified neurons in monolayer cultures from embryonic chick retinae. These recordings were directly compared with those performed on amacrine cells in chick retinal slice preparations. Current responses to depolarizing voltage steps observed in...
