Figure 5From: Postsynaptic potentiation of corticospinal projecting neurons in the anterior cingulate cortex after nerve injury Nerve injury increased the AMPAR mediated postsynaptic responses in the ACC. A, Schematic figures showing the recording on layer V by stimulating shallow layers (II/III), plus one biocytin labeled layer V pyramidal cell. B, The input–output curve of ACC layer V neurons became steeper in mice with nerve injury, compared with mice with sham injury. Two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test; C, An inward rectification of AMPA I-V curve of layer V neurons after nerve injury. D-E, The frequency of the mEPSC (D) and the paired-pulse ratio (E) is not changed after nerve injury.Back to article page
