Computational Sophistication at a Single GABAergic Connection
Diverse computational roles of GABAergic inhibition are often assumed to reflect heterogeneity in the sources of GABA and in the receptors sensing the neurotransmitter. New data suggest that distinct effects on integration of excitatory inputs by cerebellar granule cells might result from different modes of signaling by individual interneurons.
متن کاملPlasticity in Single Axon Glutamatergic Connection to GABAergic Interneurons Regulates Complex Events in the Human Neocortex
In the human neocortex, single excitatory pyramidal cells can elicit very large glutamatergic EPSPs (VLEs) in inhibitory GABAergic interneurons capable of triggering their firing with short (3-5 ms) delay. Similar strong excitatory connections between two individual neurons have not been found in nonhuman cortices, suggesting that these synapses are specific to human interneurons. The VLEs are ...
متن کاملFunctional GABAergic synaptic connection in neonatal mouse barrel cortex.
Intracortical inhibition is crucial to proper functioning of the mature neocortex, yet, paradoxically, is reported to be rare or absent in the neonatal animal. We reexamined this issue by recording whole-cell postsynaptic currents (PSCs) of barrel cortex neurons in thalamocortical brain slices from neonatal mice. Monosynaptic, excitatory thalamocortical responses were elicited in layers V/VI ne...
متن کاملReading wild minds: A computational assay of Theory of Mind sophistication across seven primate species
Theory of Mind (ToM), i.e. the ability to understand others' mental states, endows humans with highly adaptive social skills such as teaching or deceiving. Candidate evolutionary explanations have been proposed for the unique sophistication of human ToM among primates. For example, the Machiavellian intelligence hypothesis states that the increasing complexity of social networks may have induce...
