Abstract
The SK-N-BE(2c) is an I-type neuroblastoma that develops a strong pacing electrical response over time. This response is likely the result of a developing interconnected network, such that the regular pacemaker-like firing of individual cells becomes synchronous over time forming a Multi Unit Spikes signal (MUS). Immuno-fluorescence was used to show the presence of pre and postsynaptic markers, suggesting that MUS are the result of networking. Hence this cell line could prove as a useful model for synaptic dopaminergic pacing cell systems.
