Table 2. The basic properties of EGNs are not significantly different between juvenile and adult stages.
Juvenile EGN | Adult EGN | |
---|---|---|
Rest potential (mV) | −62±2.3 (n=30) | −63±3 (n=4) |
Threshold potential (mV) | −47.6±1.1 (n=30) | −50±4 (n=4) |
Percentage of bursting cells | 52% (n=30) | 50% (n=4) |
Primary dendrite ratio | 1.54 (n=12) | 1.55 (n=11) |
Cell body position (% close to the SO) | 44.7% (n=12) | 42.9% (n=11) |
EGN, early-generated neuron.
Basic morpho-physiological properties of EGNs at juvenile (P14–20) and adult (P45–P120) stages. Primary dendrite ratio: ratio between the average primary dendrite lengths of EGNs and LGNs. Cell body position: Percentage of cells within the deepest half of the stratum pyramidale closer to the stratum oriens. Bold values indicate averages. P<0.05 was considered significant. P-value is given by Fisher, Student or Mann–Whitney tests.
