Bath application of Pb2+ shifted the neurons curent-voltage relation in patch-clamp recording from acutely isolated pyramidal neurons. These results were interpreted to "demonstrate that Pb2+ in micromolar concentration is a voltage-dependent, reversible blocker of delayed-rectifier potassium currents of hippocampal neurons" Show

In a study of acutely isolated rat cells under whole cell recording across development states (Day 6 - Day 29), it was found that delayed rectifier currents decayed along a double-exponential time course and were 50% blocked by TEA (tetraethylammonium, a I(K) antagonist) at +30 mV at a concentration of about 1mM, as well as being partially blocked by 4-AP (4-aminopyridine). The current also appeared to increase over this development period. This increase was approximately 300% much larger in CA1 cells than in CA3 cells, with only approximately 50% Show

A combined in situ hybridization and immunocytochemical study demonstrated that Kv1.2 (which may correspond to I(K) channels) is concentrated in the dendrites of CA3 neurons Show
