Meanings of inward rectification in English

The whole-cell current-voltage relationship of endothelial cells showed strong inward rectification.

These GABAergic neurons showed fast firing activity, strong inward rectification and spike frequency adaptation.

Steady-state IKr during depolarizing pulses showed characteristic inward rectification.

The Kir2 channels belong to a family of potassium selective channels with characteristic strong inward rectification.
