Excitatory and inhibitory neurons express c-Fos in barrel-related columns after exploration of a novel environment.

Abstract excerpt

Recent work has shown that behaviorally meaningful sensory information processing is accompanied by the induction of several transcription factors in the barrel cortex of rodents. It is now generally accepted that stimulus-transcription coupling is an important step in the sequence of events leading to long-term plastic changes in neuronal structure and function. Nevertheless, so far few data are available as to...
