Propagation of action potentials in squid giant axons. Repetitive firing at regions of membrane inhomogeneities

Effects of reduction in potassium conductance on impulse conduction were studied in squid giant axons. Internal perfusion of axons with tetraethylammonium (TEA) ions reduces G K and causes the duration of action potential to be increased up to 300 ms. This prolongation of action potentials does not...
