Figure Lengend Snippet: AMPA receptors contribute to synaptic transmission in the RSC: (a) The figure shows the results for a single channel with the perfusion of D-AP5 (50 μM), GYKI 53655 (100 μM), CNQX (20 μM) sequentially of the experiment. The insets depict representative fEPSPs at specific time points indicated by the numerical indicators in the figure. (b) Summary results for 10 representative activation channels in one slice. (c) Summary result of in all D-AP5 (50 μM), GYKI 53655 (100 μM), and CNQX (20 μM) experiments ( n = 55 channels/6 slices/6 mice). (d) Statistical results all channels of fEPSPs with the perfusion of D-AP5 (50 μM), GYKI 53655 (100 μM), and CNQX (20 μM) sequentially ( n = 6 slices/6 mice, unpaired t -test). Error bars represent SEM. ** p < 0.01. *** p < 0.001.
Article Snippet: Drugs were freshly prepared: The selective competitive NMDA receptor antagonist D-AP5, the non-competitive AMPA receptor antagonist GYKI 53655 hydrochloride and the selective non-NMDA ionotropic glutamate receptor antagonist CNQX were purchased from Tocris Cookson (Bristol, UK).
