Values are means ± SD. Significant differences between the RS and FS groups are indicated in P. RS, regular spiking; FS, fast spiking; AHP, afterhyperpolarization; SS, steady state; Ri, input resistance estimated by impedance amplitude; τi time constant estimated by impedance amplitude; d1, the power parameter d of the approximation of the fI curve by f = (aIb)d for the 1st instantaneous firing frequency; dss, for SS firing frequency.
