From: Octopamine increases the excitability of neurons in the snail feeding system by modulation of inward sodium current but not outward potassium currents

Figure 5

Inactivation of the transient outward current in the B1 motoneuron. A. Holding the voltage for 800 ms at different values, and stepping to a fixed potential of +15 mV, determines the inactivation of the transient outward current. The transient outward current was measured at its peak value. B. Summary data for 11 runs from 4 preparations, showing mean ± SE total outward current. The solid line shows a fit of the Boltzmann equation

to the mean data, with a half voltage (h) of -71 mV and slope (s) of -6.6 mV.
