✦ Synopsis

Xenopus spinal neurons serve as a sient elevations of intracellular calcium encode differnearly ideal population of excitable cells for study of entiation in their frequency. Recent studies have developmental regulation of electrical excitability. On the one hand, the firing properties of these neurons shown that different neuronal subpopulations enlist can be directly examined at early stages of differentiadistinct mechanisms for regulation of excitability and tion and membrane excitability changes as neurons recruit specific programs of differentiation by particumature. Underlying changes in voltage-dependent ion lar patterns of activity.

In this study, we examined the possibility that MPTP and 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) act on distinct cell death pathways in a murine dopaminergic neuronal cell line, MN9D. First, we found that cells treated with 6-OHDA accompanied ultrastructural changes typical of apoptosis, whereas MPP ؉ treatment
