Abstract:
The effects of ferrous ions (Fe(2+)) on taurine-induced Cl(-) current (I(tau)) recorded from single neurons, which was freshly isolated from the rat hippocampal CA1 area, were studied with conventional whole-cell recording under voltage-clamp conditions. Using standard pharmacological approaches, we found that the currents gated by concentrations of taurine (
