Striatal cholinergic interneurons in isolated generalized dystonia – Rationale and perspectives for stem cell-derived cellular models

Interneurons comprise a minority of the striatal neuronal population of roughly 5%. However, this heterogeneous population is of particular interest as it fulfills an important relay function in modulating the output of the only type of striatal projection neurons, i.e. the medium spiny neuron (MSN)...
