Spike timing rigidity is maintained in bursting neurons under pentobarbital-induced anesthetic conditions

Spike timing rigidity is maintained in bursting neurons under pentobarbital-induced anesthetic conditions

Pentobarbital potentiates γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-mediated inhibitory synaptic transmission by prolonging the open time of GABAA receptors. However, it is unknown how pentobarbital regulates cortical neuronal activities via local circuits in vivo. To examine this question, we performed extracellu...
