Comparison of electrical properties of ChR2 expressing neurons
Genotype | Resting potential, mV | Input resistance, MΩ | Threshold, mV | Action potential duration, ms | Action potential amplitude, mV | Action potential overshoot, mV |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
ChR2− | −58.3 ± 1.8 | 126 ± 13 | −29.6 ± 2.2 | 1.02 ± 0.11 | 93.4 ± 5.9 | 35.7 ± 1.2 |
ChR2+ | −61.4 ± 1.4 | 110 ± 4.5 | −35.4 ± 2.2 | 1.11 ± 0.09 | 99.5 ± 7.1 | 38.1 ± 0.2 |
Sample size is 10 cells for each group. There was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) in the mean value of any parameter between the two types of neurons.
