Erratum: Repeated Binge-Like Ethanol Drinking Alters Ethanol Drinking Patterns and Depresses Striatal GABAergic Transmission

In this article, there is an error in Figure 6. A revised figure is below.

Figure 6

The acute effects of ethanol on GABA transmission are impaired after binge-like ethanol consumption. (a, b) Representative traces of miniature inhibitory post-synaptic currents (mIPSCs) recordings from medium spiny neurons (MSNs) in the dorsolateral striatum (DLS) of water (a) and ethanol drinking mice (b) before (top traces) and after acute application of 50 mM ethanol (bottom traces). (c) The effect of 50 mM ethanol application on mIPSC frequency normalized to baseline frequency in the DLS of water (white) and ethanol drinking (black) mice. (d) Frequency of mIPSCs recorded from individual MSNs in the DLS during baseline (base) and acute exposure to 50 mM ethanol (+ acute ethanol) in water drinking (white) and ethanol drinking (black) mice. (e, f) Representative traces of mIPSC recordings from MSNs in the DMS of water (e) and ethanol drinking mice (f) before (top) and after (bottom) the acute application of 50 mM ethanol. (g) The effect of 50 mM ethanol application on mIPSC frequency normalized to baseline frequency in the DMS of water (white) and ethanol drinking (black) mice. (h) Frequency of mIPSCs recorded from individual MSNs in the DMS during baseline (base) and acute exposure to 50 mM ethanol (+ acute ethanol) in water drinking (white) and ethanol drinking (black) mice. Data are expressed as mean±SEM. *Denotes a statistical difference from baseline mIPSC frequency, P<0.05.
