NaSal suppressed the spontaneous and miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (sIPSCs and mIPSCs) significantly in 5-HTergic neurons of rat DRN.

<p>Representative IPSC traces, cumulative probability graphs and statistics showing that NaSal decreased the frequency and the amplitude of sIPSCs (n = 8) (A) and mIPSCs (n = 12) (B) in 5-HTergic neurons. Vertical line bars represent one standard error. *<i>P <</i>0.05 and **<i>P <</i>0.01 and ^NS<i>P</i> > 0.05 relative to control (paired Student’s <i>t</i>-test).
