Differential Control of Inhibitory and Excitatory Nerve Terminal Function by Mitochondria

Kavli Affiliate: Timothy A. Ryan | Authors: Kirsten Bredvik and Timothy A Ryan | Summary: Inhibitory neurons shape the brain’s computational landscape and rely on different cellular architectures and intrinsic properties than excitatory neurons. Maintenance of the overall balance of excitatory (E) versus inhibitory (I) drive is essential, as disruptions can lead to neuropathological conditions, […]
