Figure 5. Male and female CeLC neurons recording locations and membrane properties.
(A) Location of male (blue) and female (pink) CeLC neurons that received direct PBCGRP glutamatergic input recorded in the lateral capsule of the CeLC across a number of coronal slices. Positions indicated relative to bregma. (B) There was no sex difference in the proportion of recorded CeLC neurons that received direct PBCGRP glutamatergic input. (C) There was no sex difference in oEPSC amplitudes at baseline, a metric of input strength. Male and female CeLC neurons also had similar baseline currents (D), access resistance (E), membrane resistance (F), or membrane capacitance (G).
