“…Cells were held at À70 mV, and all experiments were performed in the presence of 5 mM NBQX to block AMPARs, 2.5 mM (R,S)-CPP to block NMDARs, and 0.5 mM strychnine to block glycine receptors. IO neurons have prominent subthreshold membrane potential oscillations (Lliná s and Yarom, 1981a, 1981b, 1986Turecek et al, 2016) and conditions were adjusted to minimize oscillatory activity. 1 mM TTA-P2 was included in the ACSF to block t-type Ca 2+ channels that can drive sub-threshold oscillations (Lliná s and Yarom, 1981b).…”
