1. Using the single-electrode voltage clamp technique, three calcium current components were recorded at 35 degrees C from mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurones in culture. A transient low-threshold calcium current (T current) was recorded at clamp potentials (Vc) positive to -60 mV. Holding potentials (Vh) at or negative to -90 mV were required to fully remove inactivation. A large transie...

We prove that every implicative aBE algebra satisfies the transitivity property. This means is a Tarski algebra, and thus also commutative BCK algebra.

introduction: human embryonic stem cells (hescs) are pluripotent cells that can proliferate and differentiate to many cell types. their electrophysiological properties have not yet been chracterzed. in this study, the passive properties (such as resting membrane potential, input resistance and capacitance) and the contribution of delayed rectifier k+ channel currents to the membrane conductance...

Actions ofFRC8653 on the macroscopic and unitary Ba2` currents were studied using the rabbit basilar artery. Application of (+)-FRC8653 (<1 ,uM) increased the amplitude of the inward current when depolarization pulses more negative than -10 mV were applied but inhibited it when depolarization was more positive than 0 mV (in each case from a holding potential of -80 mV). At a holding potential o...

Hippocampal astrocytes were acutely isolated by papain treatment and mechanical trituration. Astrocytes were identified by their distinctive stellate morphology and immunocytochemical staining for glial fibrillary acidic protein. The electrophysiological properties of these cells were investigated using whole-cell voltage-clamp techniques. Three kinetically and pharmacologically distinct voltag...

In this work, we show that single input single output (SISO) fuzzy inference systems based on Fuzzy Relational Inference (FRI) with implicative interpretation of the rule base are universal approximators under suitable choice of operations for the other components of the fuzzy system. The presented proofs make no assumption on the form or representations of the considered fuzzy implications and...

This paper presents a generalization of many particular results about special types of filters (e.g., (positive) implicative, fantastic) on algebras of nonclassical (mostly fuzzy) logics. Our approach is rooted in the framework of Abstract Algebraic Logic, and is based on the close connection between the filter-defining conditions and alternative axiomatizations of the logics involved. We ident...
