Two kinds of synaptic responses identified in nonpyramidal (Non-PYR) and pyramidal (PYR) neurons of all strains. Here, we show individual representative monoexponential (top) and biexponential (bottom) mIPSCs in seizure-resistant (pyramidal neuron), normal (pyramidal neuron), and seizure-prone (nonpyramidal neuron) rats. The mIPSCs were chosen to have attributes corresponding to the median values (amplitude and time course) found in each population. Calibration: 10 msec, 10 pA. The smooth line through each mIPSC shows the fitted time course. For illustration here, the fit window for each mIPSC was adjusted so that other events did not affect the fit of deactivation phase.
