Activation of Corticothalamic Layer 6 Cells Decreases Angular Tuning in Mouse Barrel Cortex
In the mouse whisker system, the contribution of L6 corticothalamic cells (L6 CT) to cortical and thalamic processing of the whisker deflection direction was investigated. A genetically defined population of L6 CT cells project to infragranular GABAergic interneurons that hyperpolarize neurons in so...
