Figure 1. Maternal separation reduces after-discharge threshold in adult rats.

Figure 1

Female (A) and male (B) rats exposed to maternal separation (MS – solid bars) display increases in limbic excitability compared with rats exposed to early handling (EH – open bars), as evidenced by significantly reduced after-discharge threshold (*p<0.05). Data represent mean ± SEM, numbers in each group indicated in parentheses.
