Figure 8. GABA blockers do not affect spontaneous activity.
(A) Spontaneous activity from 8 RGCs recorded simultaneously in a stage 40 albino retina in the presence of the GABAA receptor antagonist gabazine. The mean population firing rate of the 8 RGCs recorded from this retina are shown below the raster (bin=10s). (B) Individual firing rates from RGCs plotted on a logarithmic scale prior to application of gabazine (ctrl), during gabazine application (gabazine), and following washout of gabazine (wash). Crosses indicate the median firing rates for the RGCs recorded under each of these conditions (n=3 retinas, n=14 RGCs).
