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.

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.

This study analyzes human dendritic spine morphology and density using a unique dataset and deep learning, revealing sex and tissue-specific differences and changes over time in culture.

The paper investigates adenosinergic modulation in layer 6 of the medial prefrontal cortex in rats, revealing differential A1AR expression and synaptic sensitivity between two excitatory neuron subtypes.

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

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.
