Distribution of cells displaying theta phase-modulated firing according to locations in the EC
| Percentage of cells | Principal cells | Interneurons | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EC2 (n = 54) | EC3 (n = 43) | EC5 (n = 40) | EC2 (n = 49) | EC3 (n = 68) | EC5 (n = 47) | |
| Theta phase modulated | 84 (n = 43) | 23 (n = 10) | 21 (n = 8) | 69 (n = 33) | 52 (n = 38) | 21 (n = 10) |
| Theta phase unmodulated | 16 (n = 11) | 77 (n = 33) | 79 (n = 32) | 31 (n = 16) | 48 (n = 30) | 79 (n = 37) |
Table shows the distribution of all single units isolated and identified as principal cells and interneurons by Quilichini et al. (2010) according to their theta phase-modulated firings and locations within the EC. It shows that neurons located mostly in EC2 were theta phase-modulated, while those from EC5 were not.
