We characterized inward rectifier (K IR ) currents in reactive astrocytes activated by CNS injury. We used primary cultures of reactive astrocytes obtained from gelatin sponge implants in adult rat brains, a system that yielded highly purified, homogeneous cultures with Ͼ95% of cells positive for GF

Astrocytes express four types of Cl(-) or anion channels, but Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) (Cl(Ca)) channels have not been described. We studied Cl(-) channels in a morphologically distinct subpopulation ( approximately 5% of cells) of small (10-12 micro m, 11.8 +/- 0.6 pF), phase-dark, GFAP-positive nati
