GABAergic Neurons and Their Role in Cortical Plasticity in Primates

Jones, E. G.·1993·Cerebral Cortex

Abstract

GABA neurons and GABA receptors are conspicuous elements of cerebral cortical organization. They serve to shape the stimulus-response properties of neurons in the sensory areas and undoubtedly play a comparable role in the nonsensory areas as well. Although non-GABAergic local circuit neurons exist in the cerebral cortex, the variety of forms adopted by the GABAergic neurons and their important functional role have served to focus attention on the latter in investigations of local cortical circuitry. In primate neocortex, GABAergic neurons constitute approximately 25-30% of the neuronal population. In addition to their known or postulated functions in shaping neuronal receptive fields and response profiles, some of which are still controversial (Sillito, 1984; Ferster, 1986), their transmitter, GABA, and the major class of receptor upon which it acts are regulated in an activity-dependent manner even in the adult (Jones, 1990). In this, there is a potential mechanism for the plasticity of representational maps that is demonstrable in somatic sensory, motor, auditory, and visual cortex (Merzenich et al., 1983; Sanes et al., 1988; Robertson and Irvine, 1989; Kaas et al., 1990).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
