摘要
We propose a mathematical model of rabbit retinal horizontal cell based on the ionic current mechanisms. Five types of ionic currents in rabbit retinal horizontal cell, I-Na, I-Ca, I-Kv, I-A and I-Ka, are described by Hodgkin-Huxley type equations based on voltage clamp measurements. In simulation the model reproduced similar responses to voltage and current clamp experiments. Under the current clamp experiment a repetitive action potential was found on A-type rabbit horizontal cells. Our result suggests that the repetitive action potential is generated by an interaction Of I-Ca and I-Kv. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd and the Japan Neuroscience Society.
