Figure 3. VIII Nerve Excitatory Inputs to the Mauthner Cell Are Normal in cyfip2 Mutants.

Figure 3.

(A) Diagram of the stimulating electrode (stimulus) adjacent to the OV posterior macula, the club-ending mixed synapse between VIII afferents and the M-cell, and the recording electrode (voltage/current [V/I]) on the M-cell.

(B) Representative traces of M-cell synaptic responses after stimulation of VIII afferents in cyfip2+/+ (left) and cyfip2p400/p400 (right) larvae at 5 dpf. The stimulation artifact has been truncated for clarity, and the electrical and chemical components are indicated.

(C and D) Mean amplitude of M-cell electrical (C) and chemical synaptic responses(D) ± SD (n = 8 siblings, 8 mutants; p = 0.78, 0.29, Mann-Whitney test).

(E) Paired-pulse ratios were unaltered in cyfip2p400/p400 larvae (p = 0.76, Mann-Whitney test).
