Dense and overlapping innervation of pyramidal neurons by chandelier cells.

Chandelier (or axo-axonic) cells are a distinct group of GABAergic interneurons that innervate the axon initial segments of pyramidal cells and thus could have an important role controlling the activity of cortical circuits. To understand their connectivity, we labeled upper layers chandelier cells (ChCs) from mouse neocortex with a genetic strategy and studied how their axons contact local pop...

Catecholaminergic innervation of pyramidal neurons in the human temporal cortex.

In the human neocortex, catecholaminergic connections modulate the excitatory inputs of pyramidal neurons and are involved in higher cognitive functions. Catecholaminergic fibers form a dense network in which it is difficult to distinguish whether or not target specificity exists. In order to shed some light on this issue, we set out to quantify the catecholaminergic innervation of pyramidal ce...

Chandelier cells control excessive cortical excitation: characteristics of whisker-evoked synaptic responses of layer 2/3 nonpyramidal and pyramidal neurons.

Chandelier cells form inhibitory axo-axonic synapses on pyramidal neurons with their characteristic candlestick-like axonal terminals. The functional role of chandelier cells is still unclear, although the preferential loss of this cell type at epileptic loci suggests a role in epilepsy. Here we report an examination of whisker- and spontaneous activity-evoked responses in chandelier cells and ...

Chandelier cells and epilepsy.

The main goal of this article is to review certain aspects of the circuitry of the human cerebral cortex that may be particularly relevant for the development, maintenance or spread of seizures. There are a number of different structural abnormalities that are commonly found in the cortex of epileptic patients, but these abnormalities do not appear to be intrinsically epileptogenic, since some ...

Noradrenergic innervation of pyramidal cells in the rat basolateral amygdala.

The basolateral nuclear complex of the amygdala (BLC) receives dense noradrenergic/norepinephrine (NE) inputs from the locus coeruleus that play a key role in modulating emotional memory consolidation. Knowledge of the extent of synapse formation by NE inputs to the BLC, as well as the cell types innervated, would contribute to an understanding of how NE modulates the activity of the BLC. To ga...
