BLA VIP-expressing interneurons functionally connects to BLA neurogliaform cells

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: inhibitory
Evidence: Optogenetic activation of VIP+ interneurons evoked inhibitory postsynaptic responses in EGFP+ neurogliaform cells of the BLA. The authors conclude these responses are GABAA receptor-mediated.
