Abstract
Inhibition of transmission between tactile sensory neurons and interneurons in the crayfish was investigated by intracellular recording int the presynaptic processes. Inhibition is correlated with a depolarization of the presynaptic process, as in the mammalian spinal cord; the depolarization is accompanied by a conductance increase, and is mediated by interneurons that can be excited by a variety of routes.Keywords
