Prolonged Disynaptic Inhibition in the Cortex Mediated by Slow, Non-α7 Nicotinic Excitation of a Specific Subset of Cortical Interneurons
Open accessAbstract
Cholinergic activation of nicotinic receptors in the cortex plays a critical role in arousal, attention, and learning. Here we demonstrate that cholinergic axons from the basal forebrain of mice excite a specific subset of cortical interneurons via a remarkably slow, non-α7 nicotinic receptor-mediated conductance. In turn, these inhibitory cells generate a delayed and prolonged wave of disynaptic inhibition in neighboring cortical neurons, altering the spatiotemporal pattern of inhibition in cortical circuits.

“The fast inhibition is at least partially mediated by the actions of both nAChRs and mAChRs that increase the excitability and firing rates of dendrite-targeting GABAergic interneurons (Arroyo et al., 2012; Couey et al., 2007; Fanselow et al., 2008; Ferezou et al., 2002; Gulledge et al., 2007; Kawaguchi and Kubota, 1997).”

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.
