A role for fast rhythmic bursting neurons in cortical gamma oscillations in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Basic cellular and network mechanisms underlying gamma frequency oscillations (30–80 Hz) have been well characterized in the hippocampus and associated structures.

Dendritic NMDA receptors in parvalbumin neurons enable strong and stable neuronal assemblies

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Parvalbumin-expressing (PV+) GABAergic interneurons mediate feedforward and feedback inhibition and have a key role in gamma oscillations and information processing.

The Interneuron Class Struggle [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2020
In this issue of Cell, Gouwens et al. establish the state of the art for defining inhibitory cell types in the mouse neocortex. By combining morphological, electrophysiological, and transcriptomic features to classify interneurons in the mouse visual cortex, this work provides a roadmap for understanding the diversity of cell types and their functional

Developmental, Neuroanatomical and Cellular Expression of Genes Causing Dystonia

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Dystonia is one of the most common movement disorders, with variants in multiple genes identified as causative. However, an understanding of which developmental stages, brain regions, and cell types are most relevant is crucial for developing relevant disease models and therapeutics.

Directed and efficient generation of calretinin interneurons from human pluripotent stem cells

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy
Background Schizophrenia, autism, and epilepsy are associated with dysfunctions in cortical GABAergic interneurons. Calretinin-expressing interneurons, the most prominent type, constitute approximately 50% of human cortical GABAergic neurons and are ...

Olfactory deficits in aging and Alzheimer’s—spotlight on inhibitory interneurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
Cognitive function in healthy aging and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s disease (AD) correlates to olfactory performance. Aging and disease progression both show marked olfactory deficits in humans and rodents.

Development of Cortical Interneurons [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology, 2014
Inhibitory local circuit neurons (LCNs), often called interneurons, have vital roles in the development and function of cortical networks. Their inhibitory influences regulate both the excitability of cortical projection neurons on the level of individual cells, and the synchronous activity of projection neuron ensembles that appear to be a neural ...

Modular Platform for Rapidly Investigating Long‐Distance Propagation of Human Neural Network Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents the first human neural organoid culture model capable of rapidly exhibiting long‐distance neural network propagation, thus delivering a system to experimentally investigate large‐scale communication during normal and diseased states.

Serotonergic System‐Targeted Nucleic Acid Hydrogel Coordinates Excitability Restoration and Circuit Reconstruction for Spinal Cord Injury Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The study reports a DNA/RNA heteroduplex hydrogel (SeroPTEN‐CG) that undergoes DNase‐mediated hydrogel‐to‐nanogel transition for spinal cord injury therapy by targeting the serotonergic system, combining 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT)‐mediated excitability restoration to reactivate dormant interneurons with phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)‐targeted ...

Relevance of Cortical and Hippocampal Interneuron Functional Diversity to General Anesthetic Mechanisms: A Narrative Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2022
General anesthetics disrupt brain processes involved in consciousness by altering synaptic patterns of excitation and inhibition. In the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, GABAergic inhibition is largely mediated by inhibitory interneurons, a heterogeneous
