Comparison of eIPSCs in R6/2 WT and CAR based on 20 Hz test according to small RRP (N < 7) and large RRP (N≥ 7)
| WT | CAR | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Property | Mean | ±SEM | n | Mean | ±SEM | n | p value | Test |

| Mean eIPSC amplitude (pA) | 84.04 | 9.18 | 28 | 81.96 | 7.48 | 22 | 0.8665 | Student's unpaired t test |
| PPR (eEPSC2/eEPSC1) | 0.74 | 0.03 | 28 | 0.84 | 0.04 | 22 | 0.0823 | Student's unpaired t test |
| Pves (mean eIPSC/cumulative eIPSC at time 0) | 0.45 | 0.04 | 28 | 0.33 | 0.03 | 22 | 0.0503 | Student's unpaired t test |
| Large N (interneuron–SON?) | ||||||||
| Mean eIPSC amplitude (pA) | 205.72 | 20.30 | 29 | 145.23 | 11.37 | 32 | 0.0099 | Student's unpaired t test |
| PPR (eEPSC2/eEPSC1) | 0.71 | 0.02 | 29 | 0.82 | 0.03 | 32 | 0.0052 | Student's unpaired t test |

The tested connections were divided according to their RRP size. Note that connections with small RRP (N < 7) and connections with large RRP (N≥ 7) were differentially affected by HD. For abbreviations see list on Introduction page.
