The long-lasting inhibition recorded in vitro from the lateral nucleus of the amygdala.
Potentials evoked by stimulation of stria terminalis and a part of the lateral nucleus of the amygdala were recorded in vitro from thin amygdaloid sections. The presence of inhibitory postsynaptic potentials lasting for 0.3-1 sec and mediated by gamma-aminobutyric acid was demonstrated by intracellular and extracellular recordings.
