A note on the reactivation of the fast sodium current in spherical clusters of embryonic chick heart cells.
Reactivation of the fast sodium current in spherical clusters of embryonic chick heart cells was studied using the two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique. The results show that there are at least two phases of reactivation. The contribution of the two phases to the overall reactivation process is highly dependent on the particular pulse protocol used to measure them.
