  • ↵aSummary results for Figure 3B and C displaying ΔCm responses to depolarizing pulse durations from 1 to 500 ms. Recordings were performed between 4 and 7 min after whole-cell break-in with control internal pipette solutions or with 1 mm cAMP containing internal solutions in separate groups of AII-ACs. Pulses were given in random order across different cells. ΔCm values are listed as mean ± SEM for control and 1 mm cAMP datasets. The number of AII-AC recordings (n) and results from a Student's t test are listed.

  • NS (p > 0.05);

  • ↵*p < 0.05;

  • ↵**p < 0.001;

  • ↵****p < 0.0001.
