Effect of paired-pulse and tetanic stimulation on mEPSC peak amplitude

	mEPSC peak amplitude (pA)
	Cell number	Before stimulation	After stimulation	Significance
Paired pulse	1	17.6  ± 6.9	18.0  ± 6.7	NS
	2	21.2  ± 12.5	17.9  ± 6.1	NS
	3	54.1  ± 41.9	49.9  ± 27.7	NS
	4	42.8  ± 22.0	36.8  ± 20.1	NS
	5	20.2  ± 8.6	20.2  ± 5.6	NS
	6	22.9  ± 8.8	22.6  ± 8.8	NS
Tetanic	1	21.1  ± 9.8	23.6  ± 10.8	p < 0.05*
	2	18.2  ± 8.6	17.3  ± 7.6	NS
	3	42.0  ± 22.8	41.0  ± 14.4	NS
	4	26.6  ± 17.6	27.7  ± 11.7	NS
	5	15.1  ± 8.3	14.9  ± 8.5	NS
	6	29.5  ± 16.2	31.4  ± 19.0	NS

*Note mEPSCs are slightly larger after stimulation, despite depression of evoked responses.

NS, Not significant; paired-pulse stimulation at 1 sec ISI.

Tetanic stimulation pattern = 10 action potentials at 20 Hz.
