Deep Survey of GABAergic Interneurons: Emerging Insights From Gene-Isoform Transcriptomics.

abstract：:The balance between excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitter systems is crucial for the modulation of neuronal excitability in the central nervous system (CNS). The activation of transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) is reported to enhance the response of hippocampal glutamate receptors, but whether the i...
