Activation of Ca2+-dependent K+ channels contributes to rhythmic firing of action potentials in mouse pancreatic beta cells

We have applied the perforated patch whole-cell technique to 13 cells within intact pancreatic islets to identify the current underlying the glucose-induced rhythmic firing of action potentials. Trains of depolarizations (to simulate glucose-induced electrical activity) resulted in the gradual (time...
