I have no idea why there is a link to the norwegian version of the article, since the linked norwegian page is apparently the norwegian version of Template:Dorlands (although I have no idea whatsoever what this template is for). Was however unable to remove the misleading link, there is no norwegian link in the source text, is this a bug?? --Schneedrache 10:12, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

mIPSC, sIPSC, eIPSC

Just because I came across this and it took me awhile to figure out exactly what the author's meant, I think there should be something explaining what is meant by miniature IPSCs vs spontaneous IPSCs, perhaps also evoked IPSCS as well. Here's the explanation and source

Spontaneous synaptic events can be recorded in almost any neuron and may be divided into two classes: those resulting from a spontaneous action potential in a presynaptic neuron (spontaneous postsynaptic current, sPSC), and those resulting from the release of a single transmitter vesicle in the absence of presynaptic activity (miniature postsynaptic current, mPSC). http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1180923/pdf/biophysj00032-0229.pdf

Hmm. The terms sIPSC and eIPSC are not really standard as far as I know -- it's not clear what a "spontaneous" action potential is supposed to be, except in the context of a specific stimulation protocol. The terms mIPSP and mIPSC are widely used and perhaps should be defined in the article. Looie496 (talk) 22:14, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

well its on the discussion page now anyway for people who are desperate enough to check this, it did really take me an unreasonably long time to find a reference explaining those terms though. Repapetilto (talk) 20:53, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

the graph is ungly ...

the yellow color is not nice .. maybe someone has a better one or changes the background color —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.50.102.89 (talk) 16:54, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think this may depend on the background you use in your browser. With a white background, as I have, it doesn't seem so bad. Any suggestions for a better color? Looie496 (talk) 17:48, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
