Abstract

Effects of temperature change on different dopamine-induced responses were studied in Aplysia ganglion cells. When the temperature was raised from 11 to 35°C, the K+-dependent inhibitory response to dopamine increased to reach a maximum at about 23°C, then decreased at higher temperature. The Na+ -dependent slow excitatory one kept increasing without showing the maximum. On the contrary, the Na+-dependent fast excitatory one rather decreased to reach the minimum near 30°C.
