TABLE 3

Potentiation of responses to a low concentration of GABA

The columns show the potentiation ratio produced by co-application of 1 μM steroid. The means are computed for control responses producing less than 0.11 of the maximal response from that oocyte (see Results and Figures 3, 4 and 5). Values shown are mean ± S.E., with the number of oocyte in parentheses, probability for a significant difference from βα γβα, and probability that the potentiation ratio is significantly different from 1 (that is, no effect). Comparisons among groups have a Dunnett correction after ANOVA to correct for multiple comparisons. Individual value shown when only one oocyte had a control fractional response less than 0.11 (see Supplementary Figure 2).
