Cortical inhibitory neurons exhibit remarkable diversity in their morphology, connectivity, and
synaptic properties. Here, we review the function of somatostatin-expressing (SOM) …

Inhibitory interneurons make up around 10–20% of the total neuron population in the
cerebral cortex. A hallmark of inhibitory interneurons is their remarkable diversity in terms of …

Inhibitory interneurons represent 10–15% of the neurons in the somatosensory cortex, and
their activity powerfully shapes sensory processing. Three major groups of GABAergic …

Since its discovery over four decades ago, somatostatin (SOM) receives growing scientific
and clinical interest. Being localized in the nervous system in a subset of interneurons …

The cardinal classes are a useful simplification of cortical interneuron diversity, but such
broad subgroupings gloss over the molecular, morphological, and circuit specificity of …

Summary Subtypes of GABAergic interneurons (INs) are crucial for cortical function, yet their
specific roles are largely unknown. In contrast to supra-and infragranular layers, where most …

Somatostatin-expressing inhibitory (SOM) neurons in the sensory cortex consist mostly of
Martinotti cells, which project ascending axons to layer 1. Due to their sparse distribution, the …

The signaling diversity of GABAergic interneurons to post-synaptic neurons is crucial to
generate the functional heterogeneity that characterizes brain circuits. Whether this diversity …

Somatostatin-expressing GABAergic neurons constitute a major class of inhibitory neurons
in the mammalian cortex and are characterized by dense wiring into the local network and …

A distinctive feature of the hippocampal structure is the diversity of inhibitory interneurons.
These complex inhibitory interconnections largely contribute to the tight modulation of …
