Abstract
From morphological characterization and intracellular recordings, monolayer cultures derived from fetal mouse hypothalami were found to include functionally differentiated peptide neurons, a number of which appear to contain vasopressin. These cells exhibited particular patterns of slow, calcium-dependent membrane depolarizations, resembling in their periodicity and duration the phasic activity of vasopressin neurons recorded extracellularly in vivo.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
