  • Data are mean ± SEM. Units are indicated in parentheses. Evoked IPSC rise time was not significantly different between groups. *Significant difference from the corresponding oil control (p < 0.05). **Significant difference from the corresponding oil control (p < 0.01). Figure 7A shows time to 50% decay from these animals.
