Table 1.
Single-prolonged stress (SPS) had no conclusive effect on resting properties of BLA neurons from male and female rats.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SPS | Male | Female | Male | Female | Male | Female |
| Control | −61 ± 3 | −57 ± 2 | 172 ± 25 | 160 ± 14 | 21 ± 3 | 16 ± 2 |
| SPS | −55 ± 4 | −58 ± 4 | 143 ± 21 | 120 ± 26 | 16 ± 2 | 13 ± 2 |
Data shown are membrane potential (RMP), input resistance (Rin) and the membrane time constant (tau, τ) for male and female rats in both the Control and SPS conditions. ANOVA revealed no significant main effects or interaction for any of the variables examined. See text for details. Data are shown as mean ± SEM from 20 BLA neurons from males (Control, N = 13; SPS, N = 7) and 20 BLA neurons from females (Control, N = 12; SPS, N = 8).
