Abstract excerpt
The whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp recording was used to study the voltage-dependent Na+ currents in a model system for the familial form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) associated with mutations in Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase. Here we report that the amplitude of voltage-gated Na+ currents is significantly reduced in cell lines expressing mutant Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase G93A when compared...
