Number of action potentials needed to trigger ectopic firing
| Cell type | Action potentials required to elicit first ectopic action potentiala | Number of ectopic action potentials evoked in most active run |
|---|---|---|
| OFC PV cells (n = 43) | 1,236 ± 772 triggered action potentials (median 989) | 102.8 ± 149.7 |
| S1BF PV cells (n = 21) | 1,516 ± 1,679 action potentials (median 997) | 64.5 ± 79.6 |
| OFC SOM cells (n = 7) | 1,808 ± 1,310 (median 1,004) | 8.4 ± 18.2 |
