In the hippocampus GABAergic local circuit inhibitory interneurons represent only~ 10–15%
of the total neuronal population; however, their remarkable anatomical and physiological …

Parvalbumin-expressing interneurons (PV-INs) are highly vulnerable to stressors and have
been implicated in many neuro-psychiatric diseases such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer's …

The cerebral cortex is a cellularly complex structure comprising a rich diversity of neuronal
and glial cell types. Cortical neurons can be broadly categorized into two classes …

The mammalian prefrontal cortex comprises a set of highly specialized brain areas
containing billions of cells and serves as the centre of the highest-order cognitive functions …

INTRODUCTION The mammalian neocortex, with its distinctive six-layered structure, is
thought to enable advanced cognitive functions not seen in other animals. Yet birds, which …

The proper construction of neural circuits requires the generation of diverse cell types, their
distribution to defined regions, and their specific and appropriate wiring. A major objective in …

Cortical interneurons display striking differences in shape, physiology, and other attributes,
challenging us to appropriately classify them. We previously suggested that interneuron …

The hippocampus is an important part of the limbic system in the human brain that has
essential roles in spatial navigation and the consolidation of information from short-term …

Precise generation of excitatory neurons and inhibitory interneurons is crucial for proper
formation and function of neural circuits in the mammalian brain. Because of the size and …

A comprehensive characterization of neuronal cell types, their distributions, and patterns of
connectivity is critical for understanding the properties of neural circuits and how they …
