Abstract: 
In the photosensitive MB neuron in the left parietal ganglion of Helix pomatia, the onset of light prolongs significantly (by about 40%) the duration of the action potential. The broadening of the action potential after the onset of light was found to be due to its calcium component and could not be induced after blocking Ca2+channels by Cd2+and Pb2+and in absence of Ca2+in medium. The blocking effect of both compounds was reversible. It was found that CdCl2exhibited a more intense blocking effect than PbCl2. © 2005 New York Academy of Sciences.
