Control of impulsivity by Gi-protein signalling in layer-5 pyramidal neurons of the anterior cingulate cortex

In order to identify receptors that may serve as therapeutic targets in the treatment of impulse control disorders, van der Veen et al developed a systematic target discovery approach combining behavioural chemogenetics and gene expression analysis. In doing so, they identified Gi-coupled receptors...
