This study investigates how serotonin modulates different cell types in the prefrontal cortex through distinct receptor pathways, revealing cell-type-specific effects on excitability and synaptic transmission.

The paper quantifies morphoelectric properties of inhibitory neurons across cortical depth in rat and mouse brains, finding depth-dependent shifts that apply to all cell types and molecular subtypes.

This study compares intrinsic and synaptic properties of human cortical neurons recorded on-site and off-site after a 30-40 minute transport, finding altered membrane potential, synaptic efficacy, and dendritic spine density.

This study investigates how genetic dysfunction in the nicotinic receptor alpha5 subunit affects neuronal and synaptic properties in rat and human cortical layer 6 neurons.

This study characterizes the morphological, electrophysiological, and neuromodulatory properties of FOXP2-expressing corticothalamic pyramidal cells in rat neocortical layers 6a and 6b, showing their distinct responses to acetylcholine and dopamine.

The paper develops a multi-layer model of somatosensory cortex with three interneuron types and cell-type-specific short-term plasticity, reproducing experimental observations on network dynamics and inhibitory effects.

This study identifies and characterizes giant depolarizing potentials (GDPs) in human neocortical neurons, showing their modulation by norepinephrine and acetylcholine.

This study shows that low concentrations of acetylcholine differentially modulate excitatory and inhibitory neurons in rat barrel cortex layer 4 through specific muscarinic and nicotinic receptor activation.

The paper identifies three subtypes of layer 6A pyramidal cells in rat barrel cortex and characterizes their distinct synaptic properties and connectivity patterns.

The paper shows that acetylcholine modulates excitability and synaptic release in different layer 6A pyramidal cell types in rat barrel cortex through distinct receptor mechanisms.
