Selective pharmacological modulation of pyramidal neurons and interneurons in the CA1 region of the rat hippocampus
The hippocampus is a complex network tightly regulated by interactions between excitatory and inhibitory neurons. In neurodegenerative disorders where cognitive functions such as learning and memory are impaired this excitation-inhibition balance may be altered. Interestingly, the uncompetitive NMDA...
