Subtype-specific plasticity of inhibitory circuits in motor cortex during motor learning

This study identifies opposite changes in two main subtypes of inhibitory neurons in the mouse motor cortex during motor learning. With learning, the number of synapses made by somatostatin-expressing inhibitory neurons (SOM-IN) onto the distal dendritic branches of pyramidal neurons decreased, wher...
