A Deficit in Parvalbumin-Expressing Interneurons in the Hippocampus Leads to Physiological and Behavioral Phenotypes Relevant to Schizophrenia in a Genetic Mouse Model

Hippocampal GABAergic interneuron deficits are implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Postmortem histological analyses show alteration in number and/or function of parvalbumin-expressing (PV+) GABAergic interneurons in the cerebral cortex of these patients. A parallel line of research u...
