When the electricity (and the lights) go out: transient changes in excitability NATURE NEUROSCIENCE Ferenczi, E., Deisseroth, K. 2012; 15 (8): 1058-1060

Abstract

Natural or artificially induced electrical activity changes can alter ion balance so as to briefly influence firing. An optogenetics study delineates one mechanism: Cl- shifts causing seconds-long excitability changes after silencing.
