From: Sexual differences in neuronal and synaptic properties across subregions of the mouse insular cortex
Similarities in inhibitory synaptic activity among female pyramidal neurons across different subregions of the insular cortex. A, B Representative spontaneous inhibitory postsynaptic currents (sIPSCs) recorded at − 70 mV in female aIC and pIC. C, D On average, ihibitory events are comparable in amplitude and frequency in both aIC and pIC. E, F Log-normal curve fittings with confidence intervals (± CI) reveal higher proportion of smaller events in pIC compared to aIC. Data are presented as box-and-whisker plots (minimum, maximum, median) and analyzed via Mann–Whitney U test. P-values < 0.05 are depicted in the graphs. The sample size for aIC female was 15/10, and for pIC female was 19/11
