Abstract | In "Aplysia," long-term sensitization (LTS) occurs concurrently with a suppression of feeding. At the cellular level, the suppression of feeding is accompanied by decreased excitability of decision-making neuron B51. We examined the contribution of voltage-gated Na[superscript +] and K[superscript +] channels to B51 decreased excitability. In a pharmacologically isolated Na[superscript +] channels environment, LTS training significantly increased B51 firing threshold, compared with untrained controls. Conversely, in a pharmacologically isolated K[superscript +] channels environment, no differences were observed between trained and untrained animals in either amplitude or area of B51 K[superscript +]-dependent depolarizations. These findings suggest that Na[superscript +] channels contribute to the decrease in B51 excitability induced by LTS training. (As Provided). |
