Mixed neurotransmission in the hippocampal mossy fibers

The hippocampal mossy fibers (MFs), the axons of the granule cells of the dentate gyrus, innervate mossy cells and interneurons in the hilus on its way to CA3 where they innervate interneurons and pyramidal cells. Synapses on each target cell have distinct anatomical and functional characteristics....
