Time and dose dependent effects of oxidative stress induced by cumene hydroperoxide in neuronal excitability of rat motor cortex neurons

•CH depresses the excitability of pyramidal neurons in a time/dose dependent manner.•Reversibility of alterations by CH is inversely proportional to exposure time.•Ability to repetitively discharge action potentials was the most affected property.•Large neurons of the motor cortex are more sensitive...
