Figure 4. Temporal release of glutamate during eyelid conditioning.

Figure 4

Microdialysis was performed in the cerebellar cortex on rats during training in the delay eyelid conditioning task. The release of Glu over time during eyelid conditioning is shown on day 1 (A; N=4 condition, 4 pseudocondition), day 2 (B; N=4 condition, 4 pseudocondition), day 3 (C; N= 4 condition, 3 pseudocondition), day 4 (D; N=4 condition, 3 pseudocondition) and day 5 (E; N= 4 condition; 4 pseudocondition). Comparable levels of glutamate were released during training on the eyeblink task for both the conditioning and the pseudoconditioning groups. Data are expressed as Glu [µM] (y-axis). Black squares represent conditioning, open squares represent pseudoconditioning. (F) Area under the curve representation of Glu release for each day of training during eyelid conditioning and pseudoconditioning (Ps-Cd, average of days). There were no differences in AUC of Glu. The solid bar underneath the curves indicates the time when the rats were receiving training trials.
