Fig. 3. Acetylcholine excites CCK inhibitory neurons by activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. (A) Cell-attached patch performed on Dlx-DIO-eGFP expressed neurons. (B) Firing of CCK inhibitory neurons induced by iontophoresis of acetylcholine. (C) Change in number of firings after drug treatment (atropine, 10 µM; MEC, 10 µM; n=3 cells; N=3 mice; one-way ANOVA, F[
26]=178.996, p<0.001 with Tukey's post-hoc test
***p<0.001).
