abstract：:Targeting and innervation of the cerebral cortex by thalamic afferents is a key event in the specification of cortical areas. The molecular targets of thalamic regulation, however, have remained elusive. We now demonstrate that thalamic afferents regulate the expression of gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) recept...
