√ indicates that an inverted U-shaped function was displayed. N indicates that an inverted U-shaped function was not displayed. Blank indicates the measure was not, or could not be, assessed. EPSC, excitatory postsynaptic current; BIC, bicuculline methobromide; IPSC, inhibitory postsynaptic current; NMDA, N-methyl-d-aspartate.
