Feline subthalamic nucleus neurons contain glutamate-like but not GABA-like or glycine-like immunoreactivity

Disinhibition of the mediodorsal thalamu

Disinhibition of the mediodorsal thalamus induces Fos-like immunoreactivity in both pyramidal and GABA-containing neurons in the medial prefrontal cortex of rats, but does not affect prefrontal extracellular GABA levels

Stimulation of the mediodorsal and midline thalamic nuclei excites cortical neurons and induces c-fos expression in the prefrontal cortex. Data in the literature data suggest that pyramidal neurons are the most likely cellular targets. In order to determine whether cortical interneurons are also imp
