Peak AHP, mV | sAHP, mV | |
---|---|---|
Etv1 | 6.6 ± 0.3 (77)† | 3.2 ± 0.2 (77)† |
Glt | 5.5 ± 0.2 (62)*† | 0.8 ± 0.2 (62)* |
Layer 2/3 | 3.7 ± 0.4 (21) | 1.3 ± 0.2 (21) |
Data are presented as mean ± SE (n, number of cells). Afterhyperpolarizations (AHPs) were elicited in response to 10 suprathreshold, 5-ms current injections at 50 Hz. Note that the RMP when this protocol was run was significantly more negative in the layer 2/3 cells (-78 ± 1 mV) vs. the layer 5 cells (-74 ± 0.5 for etv1 and -74 ± 0.4 mV for glt), which likely contributed to the smaller AHP amplitudes in these cells.
