Concentration-response relationship. (a), (c) Representative traces of SG neurons showing the changes of membrane depolarizations and inward currents to different doses of taurine (10, 30, 100, 300, 1,000, 3,000 μM). (b), (d) Curve figures showing the mean membrane potentials and the mean inward currents change which correspond with the concentration changes (*𝑃<0.05, **𝑃<0.01, ***𝑃<0.001, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe’s post hoc test).
