Motional Smearing of Electrically Recovered Couplings Measured from Multipulse Transients
The measurement of residual dipolar and quadrupolar coupling constants in the liquid phase by using an electric field to destroy the isotropic nature of molecular tumbling is complicated by charge-induced turbulent motion. In many cases this motion is due to charge injection at electrode surfaces, an effect that leads to an apparent removal of electrically recovered anisotropic spectral splitti...
متن کاملAII (Rod) Amacrine Cells Form a Network of Electrically Coupled Interneurons in the Mammalian Retina
AII (rod) amacrine cells in the mammalian retina are reciprocally connected via gap junctions, but there is no physiological evidence that demonstrates a proposed function as electrical synapses. In whole-cell recordings from pairs of AII amacrine cells in a slice preparation of the rat retina, bidirectional, nonrectifying electrical coupling was observed in all pairs with overlapping dendritic...
متن کاملElectrically evoked motile responses of mammalian type I vestibular hair cells.
Vestibular hair cells, type I and II, with membrane potentials around -64 mV were prepared from guinea pig ampullar cristae and maculae. In type I cells, current injection, application of voltage steps during membrane patch-clamping, or extracellular alternating current (ac) fields evoked fast length changes of 50 nm to 500 nm of the cell "neck." Mechanical responses were determined by computer...
متن کاملElectrically generated silver ions: quantitative effects on bacterial and mammalian cells.
The inhibitory and bactericidal concentrations of electrically generated silver ions were 10 to 100 times lower than for silver sulfadiazine. Effects on normal mammalian cells were minimal.
متن کاملFluorescence imaging of electrically stimulated cells.
Designing high-throughput screens for voltage-gated ion channels has been a tremendous challenge for the pharmaceutical industry because channel activity is dependent on the transmembrane voltage gradient, a stimulus unlike ligand binding to G-protein-coupled receptors or ligand-gated ion channels. To achieve an acceptable throughput, assays to screen for voltage-gated ion channel modulators th...
