Control 31 38.5 ± 0.5 87.2 ± 5.8 –56.2 ± 1.5 122.5 ± 15.6 7.9 ± 1.4 –26.0 ± 1.9 86.5 ± 3.9 1.30 ± 0.15 17.1 ± 1.1 25.6 ± 4.9 5/21
CCD 24 38.7 ± 0.5 83.9 ± 5.8 –55.0 ± 1.6 94.3 ± 13.3 4.1 ± 0.7* –33.8 ± 1.9 85.7 ± 4.0 1.18 ± 0.11 15.9 ± 1.4 30.9 ± 8.0 13/10

Values are mean ± SE; n is number of cells. Cm, cell capacitance; Vm, membrane potential; Rin, input resistance; AP rheobase, current threshold of action potential; VTH, voltage threshold; AHP, afterhyperpolarization; MS, number of cells discharging multiple (>2) spikes to current step at 2.5x rheobase; non-MS, number of cells discharging ≤2 spikes.

* P < 0.05,

P < 0.01 (Student's t-test, significant differences between control and CCD);

P < 0.01 (χ2 test, significant difference between control and CCD).
