Electrophysiological classification of thalamic units with head-directional properties
| Cell types | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Head direction | Head direction-by-theta | Directional theta | |
| n | 101 | 36 | 10 |
| Mean spike width (μs) | 174.2 ± 6.5 | 189.5 ± 22.6 | 186.1 ± 16.0 |
| Average frequency (Hz) | 31.5 ± 1.5 | 33.5 ± 1.6 | 26.8 ± 1.7 |
| Maximal frequency (Hz) | 98.7 ± 5.9 | 109.3 ± 7.4 | 133.7 ± 13.1 |
| Theta index all spikes | 0.0017 ± 0.0002 | 0.0217 ± 0.0004 | 0.274 ± 0.0551 |
Representation of mean spike width, average frequency, maximal frequency, and theta index of all spikes (mean ± SEM) for the three groups of units that express directional properties in anterodorsal and anteroventral thalamic nuclei.
