In order to determine the electrophysiological properties of prefrontal cortex pyramidal neurons in vivo, intracellular recordings
prefrontal cortex pyramidal neurons in vivo, intracellular recordings coupled with neurobiotin injection were performed in anesthetized rats. Three main classes of pyramidal cells were distinguished according to both their firing patterns in response to depolarizing current pulses and the characteristics of their action potentials: regular spiking (RS, n = 71); intrinsic (inactivating) bursting...
متن کاملAntibiotic Supplements Affect Electrophysiological Properties and Excitability of Rat Hippocampal Pyramidal Neurons in Primary Culture
Introduction: Antibiotic supplements are regularly used in neuronal culture media to control contamination however, they can interfere with the neuronal excitability and affect electrophysiological properties. Therefore, in this study, the effect of penicillin/streptomycin supplements on the spontaneous electrophysiological activity of hippocampal pyramidal neurons was examined. Methods: Electr...
متن کاملThalamic Activation Modulates the Responses of Neurons in Rat Primary Auditory Cortex: An In Vivo Intracellular Recording Study
Auditory cortical plasticity can be induced through various approaches. The medial geniculate body (MGB) of the auditory thalamus gates the ascending auditory inputs to the cortex. The thalamocortical system has been proposed to play a critical role in the responses of the auditory cortex (AC). In the present study, we investigated the cellular mechanism of the cortical activity, adopting an in...
متن کاملMaturation of layer 5 pyramidal neurons in the rat prefrontal cortex: intrinsic properties and synaptic function
Layer 5 pyramidal neurons in the rat medial prefrontal cortex (PFC) were examined with whole-cell patch clamp recording in acute slices from postnatal day 1 (P1) to P36. In the first few days after birth, layer 5 pyramidal neurons had low resting potentials, high input resistance and long membrane time constant. During the next 2 weeks, the resting potential shifted by -14 mV, while the input r...

Layer V pyramidal neurons in the rat medial prefrontal cortex (PFC) were examined with whole cell patch-clamp recording in acute slices from postnatal day 1 (P1) to P36. In the first few days after birth, layer V pyramidal neurons had low resting potentials, high-input resistance, and long membrane time constant. During the next 2 wk, the resting potential shifted by -14 mV, while the input res...
