## Abstract Inward and, depending on activation state, outward potassium currents are the dominant ion channels in microglial cells in culture. During transition between resting and activated phases, there is also an upregulated expression of stretch/swellingβactivated chloride currents. Pharmacolo

Single channel currents have been recorded from cultured adult human Schwann cells. In both cell-attached and -excised (inside-out) patches, openings from a high-conductance (360 pS) channel were observed; measurements of the zero-current potential indicated that the channel was predominantly select
## Abstract Human brain macrophages (microglia) have been isolated from mixed brain cell cultures initiated from explants of neurosurgical adult human tissue in one step according to a method developed for rat microglia. Cells were characterized enzymeβhistochemically (NDPase) in mixed and immunocy
