PARADOXICAL EFFECTS OF POSTERIOR INTRALAMINAR THALAMIC CALRETININ NEURONS ON HIPPOCAMPAL SEIZURE VIA DISTINCT DOWNSTREAM CIRCUITS

Paradoxical effects of posterior intralaminar thalamic calretinin neurons on hippocampal seizure via distinct downstream circuits

Summary: Epilepsy is a circuit-level brain disorder characterized by hyperexcitatory seizures with CORNSILK unclear mechanisms.Here, we investigated the causal roles of calretinin (CR) neurons in the posterior intralaminar thalamic nucleus (PIL) in hippocampal seizures.Using c-fos mapping and calcium fiber photometry, we found that PIL CR neurons w
