This study shows that mTORC1 dysregulation in PV interneurons affects tactile sensitivity and social behavior by altering connectivity and excitability.

This study investigates how Syngap1 haploinsufficiency in GABAergic interneurons affects synaptic and intrinsic properties in mouse auditory cortex, linking these changes to auditory processing deficits in SYNGAP1-ID.

This study identifies altered firing patterns in VIP interneurons and early dysfunction in CA1 hippocampal circuits in 3xTg-AD mice, suggesting a potential mechanism for AD pathology.

The paper investigates how group III mGluR activation affects GABAergic synaptic transmission in two types of human neocortical interneurons, finding differential effects on inhibitory currents.

The paper identifies synaptic mechanisms controlling VIP-expressing interneurons' firing and their recruitment during theta oscillations and ripples in the hippocampus.

The paper identifies a novel type of VIP+ neuron in the mouse hippocampus that projects to both CA1 and subiculum, showing distinct molecular and functional properties.
