PIL (Posterior intralaminar thalamic nucleus) functionally connects to Intercalated cell GABAergic neurons

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: inhibitory
Evidence: Optogenetic stimulation of thalamic terminals also elicited excitation-driven GABAergic IPSCs recorded at 0 mV in medial paracapsular intercalated cells; these inhibitory responses were larger in ErbB4 conditional knockouts, lowering the excitation/inhibition ratio.
