In cultured Schwann cells, single-channel and whole-cell K+ currents can be activated by depolarizing the membrane to values more negative than -50 mV. In elevated extracellular K+ concentration ([K+]o), however, single-channel activity and whole-cell currents could be recorded at more negative pote
Cultured Schwann cells are characterized by a strong outward rectification of the membrane; the threshold of the outward currents is close to the resting membrane potential of about -50 mV (Gray et al.: In Ritchie, Keynes (eds): Ion Channels in Neural Membranes. New York: Alan R. Liss, Inc., pp 145-
