Impaired dendritic spike generation in the Fragile X prefrontal cortex is due to loss of dendritic sodium channels
2022-05-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Patients with Fragile X syndrome, the leading monogenetic cause of autism, suffer from impairments related to the prefrontal cortex including working memory and attention. Synaptic inputs to the distal dendrites of layer 5 pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex have a weak influence on the somatic membrane potential. To overcome this filtering, distal inputs are transformed into local dendri...
