Claim 1cell type specificitysupports2017Source 1DOIPubMed

Fast-spiking and non-fast-spiking basal amygdala interneurons display differential modulation by glutamate and 5-HT.

Quoted textsource-backed
Interestingly, fast-spiking and non-fast-spiking INs displayed differential modulation by glutamate and 5-HT.
Claim 2functional conclusionsupports2017Source 1DOIPubMed

5-HT neurons exert frequency-dependent, cell-type-specific control over basal amygdala circuitry via 5-HT and glutamate co-release to inhibit basal amygdala output.

Quoted textsource-backed
Collectively, these findings suggest that 5-HT neurons exert a frequency-dependent, cell-type-specific control over BA circuitry via 5-HT and glutamate co-release to inhibit the BA output.

5-HT neurons co-release 5-HT and glutamate onto basal amygdala neurons in a cell-type-specific and frequency-dependent manner.

Higher-frequency optical stimulation of 5-HT terminals evokes slow excitation and slow inhibition of basal amygdala interneurons mediated by 5-HT through 5-HT2A and 5-HT1A receptors, respectively.

Quoted textsource-backed
Optical stimulation of 5-HT terminals at higher frequencies (10-20 Hz) evoked both slow excitation and slow inhibition of INs. These effects were mediated by 5-HT because they were blocked by antagonists of 5-HT2A and 5-HT1A receptors, respectively.
Claim 5mechanistic observationsupports2017Source 1DOIPubMed

Low-frequency optical stimulation of 5-HT terminals evokes short-latency excitation of basal amygdala interneurons that is mediated by glutamate rather than 5-HT.

Quoted textsource-backed
Optical stimulation of 5-HT terminals at low frequencies (≤1 Hz) evoked a short-latency excitation of BA interneurons (INs) ... Pharmacological analysis revealed that this effect was mediated by glutamate and not 5-HT because it was abolished by ionotropic glutamate receptor antagonists.
Claim 6negative mechanistic observationsupports2017Source 1DOIPubMed

Optical stimulation of 5-HT terminals does not evoke glutamate release onto basal amygdala principal neurons, but inhibits these cells directly via 5-HT1A receptors and indirectly via enhanced GABA release.
