Octopamine increases the excitability of neurons in the snail feeding system by modulation of inward sodium current but not outward potassium currents
BACKGROUND: Although octopamine has long been known to have major roles as both transmitter and modulator in arthropods, it has only recently been shown to be functionally important in molluscs, playing a role as a neurotransmitter in the feeding network of the snail Lymnaea stagnalis. The synaptic...
