Figure 6. vGlut2^BF neurons receive fast mono-synaptic nicotinic current.

(A) Schematic showing experimental paradigm with confocal picture of basal forebrain labeling cholinergic channelrhodopsin neurons (green) and vGlut2^BF neurons (red). Scale bar = 100 µm. (B) Example trace from a vGlut2^BF neuron with cholinergic neuron photostimulation. (C) Average evoked monosynaptic nicotinic current onto vGlut2^BF neurons. N = 6 neurons out of 52 patched neurons from three animals. *p<0.05, student’s t-test.
