Abstract:
:By using the modified detection method, favored patterns can be detected in a total of 44 spontaneous spike trains. Among these the 'periodical burst' discharge of one sympathetic preganglionic neuron and the 'fast-slow' alternative discharge of some hypothalamic neurons have visible characteristics, hence we use them to test the reliability of our method by comparing the detected patterns with the non-sequential interval histograms and oscillograms of the spike trains. The comparisons show that our method is reliable. The spike trains of nucleus raphe magnus (NRM) and the locus coeruleus (LC) have no visible characteristics; from these the following results have been observed: (1) all spike trains have one or more favored patterns; (2) some spike trains from neurons in the same nucleus have common fragments of favored patterns; (3) the favored patterns in spike trains recorded from different nuclei are different from each other; (4) some favored patterns in spike trains of the NRM neurons remain unchanged from beginning to end in 35-min records and their repetitions are relatively stable; and (5) microinjection of normal saline or normal serum into the LC has no significant influence on the occurrence of favored patterns in 35-min records of spike trains of the LC neurons. The above results indicate that the favored patterns in spike trains are objective and regular phenomena with relative stability. It seems likely that favored pattern may be used (as an index of the neuronal activity) in combination with the microinjection technique, etc., for various studies including studies on neural coding.
