Dorsal root ganglion neurons showed similar conduction velocity (CV) and action potential (AP) properties after paclitaxel chemotherapy. (A) AP was recorded intracellularly from soma of a C-neuron evoked by peripheral nerve stimulation. AP properties were measured as illustrated: (1) AP amplitude, (2) AP rise time, (3) AP fall time, (4) AP duration at base, (5) afterhyperpolarization (AHP) amplitude, and (6) AHP 50% duration. Comparisons of CV (B), AP amplitude (C), AP duration (D), AP rise time (E), AP fall time (F), AHP amplitude (G), and AHP 50% duration (H) were made after paclitaxel chemotherapy. *P < 0.05, one-way ANOVA.
