Light-responsive neurons (n = 15) | Nonresponsive neurons (n = 15) | p Value (light-responsive vs nonresponsive) | |
Resting membrane potential | −72.9 ± 1.2 mV | −70.8 ± 2.1 mV | 0.5606 |
Capacitance | 14.2 ± 1.4 pF | 13.6 ± 1.4 pF | 0.8519 |
Input resistance | 232.5 ± 24.5 MΩ | 253.4 ± 25.8 MΩ | 0.5336 |
Quantification of resting membrane potential, capacitance, and input resistance values shows no difference between DG granule cells receiving the VTA GABA input and nonconnected neurons (i.e. light-responsive vs nonresponsive neurons).
