Figure 3

A single phase of upstroke in the evoked spikes is converted into two phases in AISS expression, in which the rising slopes of phase two are variable compared with phase one. A) shows AISS onset (red trace) after evoked spikes (black trace) in a GABAergic neuron. B) shows the phase-plots for the evoked spikes (black traces) and AISS (red traces) in this neuron. There are two phases in AISS’s rising slopes, phase one and phase two (pointed by arrows). C) shows AISS onset (red trace) after evoked spikes (black trace) in a GABAergic neuron, in which AISS includes spikelets and full spikes. D) shows the phase-plots for evoked spikes (black traces) and AISS (red traces). In addition to two phases in AISS’s rising slope, there are two formats of AISS for spikelets and full spikes, respectively. E) shows AISS onset (red trace) after evoked spikes (black trace) in a GABAergic neuron. F) illustrates the phase-plots for evoked spikes (black traces) and AISS (red traces). There is an interval between two phases of AISS. Compared with a single phase for the evoked spikes, all of AISS waveforms show two phases.
