Meanings of hyperpolarizing in English

We suggest that it may represent a hyperpolarizing response of second order retinal neurons.

BK channels regulate vascular tone by hyperpolarizing smooth muscle in response to fluctuating calcium concentrations.

In current clamp, large overshooting action potential-like events were observed only after prior hyperpolarizing current injections.

The time constant of if during a hyperpolarizing voltage-clamp pulse displays a relatively high temperature dependence.

The space constant was larger for hyperpolarizing pulses than for depolarizing pulses because of delayed recitification.

The second, smaller group (n=8) had a delayed return to baseline at the offset of hyperpolarizing pulses.

The resting input resistance of the cells was examined by measuring the current resulting from a 20-mV hyperpolarizing pulse.

All four further investigated NaRs showed a functional expression in dissociated hippocampal neuron culture and hyperpolarizing activity upon light-stimulation.

Half maximal hyperpolarizing effect is elicited by approximately 0.2 microM.

The conductance increase induced by glutamate in presumed hyperpolarizing bipolar cells was associated with an increase in membrane current noise.

When expressed alone, they produce a delayed rectifier slowly inactivating type current that contributes to hyperpolarizing the neuron following depolarization.

Similar to NE, dopamine and epinephrine reduced or blocked spikes and, in the presence of TTX, showed direct hyperpolarizing actions.

Pretreatment of the cells with either pertussis toxin or cholera toxin does not blunt the hyperpolarizing effect of mercury ions.

The firing of VGCC requires β-cell membrane depolarization, which is regulated by a balance of depolarizing and hyperpolarizing ionic currents.

In current clamp, hyperpolarizing current steps produced a time-dependent depolarizing sag followed by either a rebound afterdepolarization or an action potential.

This indicates that these GABAergic neurons are responsible for the generation of at least the spindle-frequency hyperpolarizing waves in TC neurons.
