Figure 5

Panel A shows event rate, spatial extent and amplitude (mean +/-SEM) of wide long lasting events (WLEs) in intact NZPCs (white bars) and IZPCs (black bars) by region (Core and SSL). Numbers in parentheses indicate actual number of events in each group. Mann-Whitney test was carried out for statistics of the WLE event rate. Unpaired t test was carried out for statistics of the amplitude. Panel B. Time constants of decay of WLE events in both intact NZPCs and IZPCs were determined in each event/cell using Clampfit. Average Tau1 and Tau2 values are shown. Note while Tau1 values did not differ between cell groups, Tau2 was significantly reduced in IZPCs. The One-Way ANOVA and Tukey's Post Hoc Test were carried out for the statistics. Panel C. Linear profiles to the right show typical NZPC and IZPC events from both the SSL and Core. NS indicates not significant.
