Sparsification of AP firing in adult-born hippocampal granule cells via voltage-dependent α5-GABAA receptors

Summary: GABA can depolarize immature neurons close to the action potential (AP) threshold in development and adult neurogenesis. Nevertheless, GABAergic synapses effectively inhibit AP firing in newborn granule cells of the adult hippocampus as early as two weeks post-mitosis. The underlying mechan...
