Comparison of the effects of alpha7 nAChR agonist PHA-543613 and PAM NS-1738 during their separate and simultaneous application. Firing rate histograms show typical examples of neurons that responded with firing rate increase (A) or with firing rate decrease (B) to the microiontophoretic application of PHA-543613. Insets show typical extracellular action potentials of CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells recorded in the given experimental session. Bar charts (mean ± SEM) assess the effects of PHA-543613, NS-1738 and their co-application on the spontaneous (C, N = 20) and NMDA-evoked (D, N = 19) firing rate. Asterisks indicate significant effects of the given compound compared with the baseline firing rate value according to Wilcoxon signed rank test: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
