Membrane properties of ventromedial interneurons classified on the basis of their firing patterns

	Bursters	Nonbursters
n	45	14
Rm (MΩ)	844 ± 91	705 ± 108
AP amp (mV)	57.6 ± 1.5	62.5 ± 2.8
AP dur (ms)	2.3 ± 0.1	1.9 ± 0.15
AP threshold (mV)	−45.2 ± 1.0	−41.6 ± 1.2*
Rheobase (pA)	17.8 ± 3.2	22.6 ± 5.8

n represents the number of cells. AP, Action potential; amp, amplitude; dur, duration.

*p < 0.05. Statistical significance was assessed by a Mann–Whitney test.
