TABLE 4

Recovery from inhibition by co-applied 100 μM PhTX-343 or 100 μM PhTX-(12) of whole-cell currents induced by 10 μM ACh at + 50, −50, and −100 mV.

All P values are from unpaired Student's t test. Values are presented as mean ± S.E.M. (n cells).

  • * (P < 0.05)

  • ** (P < 0.01)

  • *** (P < 0.001) indicate significance of difference from data obtained at −50 mV.

  • (P < 0.05) indicates significance of difference between recovery of peak and late currents.
