Ethanol enhancement of the proximal GABA_A IPSC amplitudes recorded with electrodes filled with potassium gluconate or CsCl

ISS (120 mm ethanol)		ILS (80 mm ethanol)
Potassium gluconate	CsCl	Potassium gluconate	CsCl
28.53 ± 6.03 (6)	59.78 ± 13.38 (4)*	38.11 ± 2.67 (7)	65.55 ± 12.43 (6)*

Synaptically evoked GABA_A IPSCs in CA1 pyramidal neurons were recorded from ISS and ILS mice using potassium gluconate- or CsCl-filled electrodes in the absence or presence of ethanol (80 or 120 mm, respectively). The results (% enhancement from control) are means ±s.e.m. for the number of neurons recorded (in parentheses).
