Journal ArticleDOI

Chrna2-Martinotti Cells Synchronize Layer 5 Type A Pyramidal Cells via Rebound Excitation.

TL;DR: The results show that L5 Martinotti cells participate in defined cortical circuits and can synchronize PCs in a frequency-dependent manner, and suggest that Martinotti Cells are pivotal for coordinated PC activity, which is involved in cortical information processing and cognitive control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperpolarization-activated currents are differentially expressed in mice brainstem auditory nuclei

TL;DR: The results indicate that the native Ih for each cell type influences the resting membrane potential and can delay the generation of action potentials in response to injected current, and that these differences significantly affect the response properties of cells within these nuclei.
Journal ArticleDOI

Altered sodium currents in auditory neurons of congenitally deaf mice.

TL;DR: The results emphasize the importance of activity during development in regulating Na+ channels in neurons from the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB).
Journal ArticleDOI

Sensorimotor function is modulated by the serotonin receptor 1d, a novel marker for gamma motor neurons

TL;DR: It is shown that 5-ht1d is a novel marker for gamma MNs and that the 5-HT1d receptor is important for the ability of proprioceptive circuits to receive and relay accurate sensory information in developing and mature spinal cord motor circuits.
