Changes in cationic selectivity of the nicotinic channel at the rat ganglionic synapse: a role for chloride ions?

The permeability of the nicotinic channel (nAChR) at the ganglionic synapse has been examined, in the intact rat superior cervical ganglion in vitro, by fitting the Goldman current equation to the synaptic current (EPSC) I-V relationship. Subsynaptic nAChRs, activated by neurally-released acetylchol...
