Abstract excerpt
Cortical neurons differ in their neurochemical properties. Projection neurons use excitatory amino acids as transmitters, most local interneurons contain the inhibitory transmitter GABA, and specific subtypes of local circuit neurons express distinct neuropeptides. How this cellular diversity is generated during development is not known. We have been studying the transmitter differentiation of cortical neurons in...
