Serotonergic Regulation of Corticoamygdalar Neurons in the Mouse Prelimbic Cortex

Serotonergic Regulation of Corticoamygdalar Neurons in the Mouse Prelimbic Cortex

Neuromodulatory transmitters, such as serotonin (5-HT), selectively regulate the excitability of subpopulations of cortical projection neurons to gate cortical output to specific target regions. For instance, in the mouse prelimbic cortex, 5-HT selectively excites commissurally projecting (COM) intr...
