Exposure to endothelin-1 (ET-1, 50nM) of sensory neurons, acutely isolated from rat dorsal root ganglia, results in an increase in the number of action potentials elicited by a linear ramp of stimulating current. The changes are complete in 5 minutes after ET-1 treatment and do not reverse in 5-10 minutes after ET-1’s removal. Neither the resting potential, nor the threshold potential for the first or second action potentials, nor their rate of rise or decay, are changed by ET-1 exposure, but the slow depolarizations which occur before the first and second action potentials during the current ramp are increased by ca. 50% by ET-1. The delayed rectifier type of K+ currents (IK), measured under whole-cell voltage clamp, are depressed by ~30% during such exposure to ET-1. The voltage-dependent gating of steady-state IK and the current kinetics are unchanged by ET-1, leaving the sole effect as a drop in the number of available channels. IK is affected by ET-1 only in Isolectin B4-positive cells, suggesting that there may be a selective action in enhancing impulse activity on this class of nociceptive neuron. This decrease in IK will potentiate the excitability-inducing actions of the previously reported negative shift in tetrodotoxin-resistant Na+ channel gating in such neurons.
