Figure 6

A, diagram of electrode positioning for stimulation of closely associated parallel fibres in the molecular layer (ML, left panel), and more distributed parallel fibres from stimulating somata in the granular layer (GL, right panel), during recording from a single Purkinje neuron (grey). B, representative recordings of EPSCs from a single Purkinje neuron when stimulated in the molecular layer (ML, first panel) or the granular layer (GL, second panel). The third panel shows an overlay of the traces (molecular layer in grey). C, representative recordings of EPSCs from a Purkinje neuron stimulated in the granular layer at 0.033 Hz (first panel) and 0.2 Hz (second panel) for 10 min. The third panel shows an overlay of the traces (0.033 Hz in grey). D, mean ± SEM of n = 9 cells for amplitude (left panel) and decay time (right panel) when stimulating in the molecular layer (grey, ML) or granular layer (black, GL). *P = 0.028 (paired t test). E, mean ± SEM of n = 6 cells for amplitude (left panel) and decay time (right panel) when stimulating in the granular layer at 0.033 Hz (grey) and 0.2 Hz (black). No statistically significant differences were observed.
