Figure 2. Synaptic efficacy of glutamatergic synapses is decreased in brain neurons of mice after prenatal exposure to cell phone radiation.
A–C, mEPSCs were recorded in layer V pyramidal neurons of the prefrontal cortex. Representative traces of mEPSCs from control and cell phone exposure groups are shown in A. mEPSC frequency and cumulative probability of mEPSC amplitude from both groups are shown in B (*, P<0.05, t test) and C (**, P<0.01, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test; controls, 2225 events; Exposed, 2766 events). D–F, representative traces, frequency and amplitude of mEPSCs recorded in neurons in the VMH are shown. *, P<0.05, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test; Control: 2161 events, Cell phone group: 2261 events.
