Supplementary Figure 1: Distinction among different firing patterns.
From: An astrocyte-dependent mechanism for neuronal rhythmogenesis
Examples of whole cell recordings (top) and extracellular recordings (bottom) showing the regular low-frequency firing referred to as tonic firing (left) and the rhythmic bursting firing (right). Bursts are clusters of at least 3 spikes occurring at high frequency separated by silent periods. In whole cell rhythmic records, these spikes appeared on top of depolarizing plateaus. Doublets of spikes (middle), where an ADP following the first spike supports a second spike, are often recorded in transition between these two types of firing patterns. ISI = interspike interval; IBI = interburst interval.
