Comparison of the Ca²⁺ increase in different conditions. a Schematic diagram of excitatory and inhibitory receptor components that are considered in this study. The table at the bottom indicates putative components that are activated in the given condition. Individual components are explained in the center. b-d Difference in Ca²⁺ responses between two groups of GCs in several conditions indicated on the x-axis. Comparison was made between M-GCs and D-GCs (b), S-GCs and M-GCs (c), or S-GCs and D-GCs (d) (for the comparison with 0, *p < 0.05, one-sample Wilcoxon signed rank test; for comparison in the different conditions, ^§p < 0.05, one-way ANOVA followed by the Fisher test, color symbols indicate the comparison with conditions for which the results are shown in that color). For the direct comparison, results shown in Fig. 4b, c are also included. Numbers of slices used are as follows: n = 19, 18, or 18 for M–D, S–M, or S–D, respectively (Bic + CGP); n = 26, 13, or 7 for M–D, S–M, or S–D, respectively (CGP); n = 25, 14, or 14 for M–D, S–M, or S–D, respectively (SNAP + SKF); n = 19, 12, or 10 for M–D, S–M, or S–D, respectively (DL-TBOA); n = 28, 31,or 23 for M–D, S–M, or S–D, respectively (Bic + AP5 + 7Cl)
