Pharmacological assessment of IPSCs using TPMPA, NO-711, zolpidem, and clonazepam. TPMPA efficacy is defined as the mean ± SEM of the change in mIPSC amplitude in the presence of 100 μm TPMPA. NO-711 enhancement values (defined as the percentage change in decay constant with drug application) are given for control (roman text) and Fmr1−/y (bold text) at each of the ages tested. Zolpidem and clonazepam enhancement values (defined as the percentage change in decay constant with drug application) are given for wild-type (roman text) and Fmr1−/y (bold text) at each of the ages tested. The number of cells in each group is indicated in parentheses. A Student's two-tailed t test was performed for all conditions. The p values are listed below the averaged value, and p < 0.05 are shown in bold. ND, Not determined.
