Table 2. Resting membrane potential and rheobase values of medial VTA DA neurons.
Values presented are average resting membrane potential and rheobase ±SEM. Data were compared using unpaired, two-tailed t-tests; p < 0.05 was considered significant.
Naïve | EtOH | p value | |
---|---|---|---|
Resting membrane potential (mV) | −64.0 ± 2.7 (n = 21) | −65.3 ± 4.1 (n = 11) | 0.79 |
Rheobase (pA) | 59.2 ± 13.0 (n = 16) | 70.9 ± 18.2 (n = 9) | 0.6 |
