DOI: 10.1523/eneuro.0070-23.2023
Abstract: Abstract A key assumption in studies of cortical functions is that excitatory principal neurons, but not inhibitory cells express calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II subunit α (CaMKIIα) resulting in a widespread use of CaMKIIα promoter-driven protein… read more here.
