In the presence of Ba++, an increase in the bath HCO3- at constant CO2 (i.e., variable bath pH) produced a hyperpolarization. The hyperpolarizing effect of adding HCO3-/CO2 at constant bath pH was not significantly affected by the presence of 50 mumol/l strophanthidin. In the absence of Ba++, additi
Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes in the isolated intact mature rat optic nerve have been computer imaged in three dimensions by laser scanning confocal microscopy of single cells, dye-filled with lysinated rhodamine dextran (LRD). Our results illustrate the first application of these techniques to an
Recent studies have revealed that a dynamic axon-glial signaling occurs in the rat optic nerve, which is devoid of synapses. This interaction is postulated to be mediated by non-vesicular release of glutamate via a reversal of high-affinity glutamate transporters. Here we examined the expression of
