Alpha-2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors regulate spectral integration in auditory cortex

IntroductionIn primary auditory cortex (A1), nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) containing α2 subunits are expressed in layer 5 Martinotti cells (MCs)—inhibitory interneurons that send a main axon to superficial layers to inhibit distal apical dendrites of pyramidal cells (PCs). MCs also con...
