Responses of NlE-115 neuroblastoma cells to application of carbachol were studied using intracellular recording techniques. Activation of muscarinic cholinergic receptors by carbachol resulted in a depolarization of the cells. The response was blocked by pirenzepine (1 microM) and by CoCl2 (5 mM), verapamil (10 microM) and gallopamil (10 microM), and prolonged by quinine (5 mM). It is suggested that muscarinic receptors increase the membrane calcium permeability, and that the influx of calcium…

It is demonstrated that K+ ion channels are involved in the LAK cell cytolytic process and that compounds, including neuroendocrine products, which modulate K- ion channel function are capable of modulating the lytic activity of these effector cells.

It is concluded that Ca2+ entry during the action potential activates a TEA‐resistant K+ conductance which gives rise to the prolonged a.h.p. duration which plays a role in the regulation of low‐frequency firing.

The results are consistent with the hypothesis that IK(Ca) depends both on ICa and on membrane potential, and the slow K+ current is suggested to be mediated by Ca2+ influx, but the voltage‐dependence of the underlying conductance differs significantly from the ICa voltage-dependence.
