(A) Representative peak maps showing the maximum ΔF/F
recorded at each spatial site at any time point, for brain slices from sham and
LFPI animals. From left to right: slice image showing amygdala anatomy followed
by peak response to 100, 200, and 300 μA stimulation intensities.
(B) LA-to-BA activation ratio. BA FDP amplitude/LA FDP
amplitude reveals a significant decrease in propagation of activation in LFPI
animals (sham n= 16 slices / 9 animals, LFPI n=14 slices / 7 animals,
P= 0.005**). (C) LA-to-CeA activation ratio.
CeA FDP amplitude/LA FDP amplitude reveals a significant decrease in propagation
of activation from lateral to central amygdala in LFPI animals (sham n= 16
slices / 9 animals, LFPI n=14 slices / 7 animals, P=
0.003**).
