Exclusive associations between membrane potential slow oscillations and respiration-related discharge patterns.

<p>The cell percentages exhibiting an association between each type of membrane potential slow oscillation (including silent membrane potential slow oscillations, silent MPSOs) and each type of respiration-related discharge pattern are shown for the control (n = 26) and odor periods (n = 30). The cells that were used to create theses matrices are the same as those used in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0043964#pone-0043964-g002" target="_blank">Figures 2</a> and <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0043964#pone-0043964-g003" target="_blank">3</a>. For the cells with NoMPSOs or silent MPSOs, only those that were tested using the intracellular excitability protocol were conserved. The cell percentages are represented using a grayscale code, in which white indicates a null percentage and black indicates 30% of the entire population. NoMPSO: no oscillation; silent MPSO: silent membrane potential slow oscillation; MPSO+: positive membrane potential slow oscillation; MPSO-: negative membrane potential slow oscillation; MPSOsym: symmetric membrane potential slow oscillation; NoS: non-synchronized pattern, S+: excitatory-simple-synchronized pattern; S-: suppressive-simple-synchronized pattern; Sc: complex synchronized pattern; Null: null activity.
