int (internal capsule) functionally connects to Intercalated cell GABAergic neurons

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
electrical stimulation
Sign
excitatory
Evidence
Bipolar electrical stimulation of thalamic fibres in the internal capsule evoked EPSPs in medial paracapsular intercalated cells; pairing this stimulation with postsynaptic depolarization produced long-term potentiation in wild-type mice but long-term depression in ErbB4 conditional knockouts.
Named in the paper
“thalamic afferents (internal capsule)” and “mpITCs”
Made by
an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
Checked by

a second AI model (claude-opus-5) agrees, 2026-10-10

“Paper shows electrically evoked EPSPs in mpITCs from internal capsule thalamic fibers, with LTP in WT and LTD in cKO, as in Fig. 4.”

Status

proposed

Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
