Long-delay fear conditioning reduces the post-burst AHP in lateral amygdala pyramidal neurons. (A) Time course of the post-burst AHP amplitude. Neurons from Cond-1hr (n = 13) and Cond-24hr rats (n = 28) had a significantly smaller AHP relative to Control rats (n = 28) at all points between 0.5 and 4.0 sec following current offset. (B) Representative traces of the post-burst AHP. Voltage sweeps illustrate LA pyramidal neurons from fear conditioned rats have smaller AHPs compared to Control rats (scale: 1 mV, 100 msec). (C) Area of the post-burst AHP. Bar graphs illustrate that the AHP area is significantly smaller in neurons from Cond-1hr and Cond-24hr compared to Control rats. (*) P < 0.05 relative to LA neurons from Control rats.
