Effects of Lis1 Mutation on the Development of Somatostatin-positive Interneurons of the Cingulate Cortex.

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: Inhibitory interneurons make up around 25% of the overall neuron population. One subtype of interneurons based on neurochemical properties are somatostatin-positive interneurons (SST+ interneurons). They express somatostatin in addition to GABA and synapse on both pyramidal neurons and interneurons, regulating cortical information processing and the excitation/inhibition balance in the brain. SST+ interneurons are generated in the medial ganglionic eminence and follow a tangential pathway to reach their final destination in the cortex.
