The activity synchrony of neuronal and astrocytic networks increases in responses to whisker stimuli with high frequency. A~B) Correlation matrices show cross-correlations for each of neuron-pairs in response (Ca²⁺ signals) to paired burst-stimuli, including response one (R1) vs. response two (R2) to 8Hz (A) and 12Hz (B) of stimulus frequency, respectively. C) shows a comparison of correlation coefficients averaged from all active neuron-pairs (excluding auto-correlations) in responses to paired burst-stimuli at 8-to-12Hz. D~E) Correlation matrices show the cross-correlations for each of astrocyte-pairs in response to paired-stimuli, including R1 vs. R2 to 8Hz (A) and 12Hz (B) of stimulus frequencies, respectively. F) shows a comparison of the correlation coefficients averaged from all active astrocyte-pairs in responses to paired burst-stimuli (8-to-12Hz). Asterisk presents p<0.05 in paired student’st-test.
