Linked Claims

Claim 1comparative responsesupports2016Source 1DOIPubMed

Responses to cortical input are comparatively stronger in parvalbumin-positive interneurons than in claustrocortical neurons.

Claim 2connectivity observationsupports2016Source 1DOIPubMed

Claustrocortical neurons and parvalbumin-positive interneurons form frequent synaptic connections.

Claim 3connectivity observationsupports2016Source 1DOIPubMed

Parvalbumin-positive inhibitory interneurons are highly interconnected by both chemical and electrical synapses.

Claim 4functional interpretationsupports2016Source 1DOIPubMed

The reported claustral cellular organization is consistent with circuits sensitive to correlated inputs and with roles in sensory novelty detection or amplification of correlated cortical inputs.

Claim 5input connectivitysupports2016Source 1DOIPubMed

Corticoclaustral afferents form monosynaptic connections onto both claustrocortical neurons and parvalbumin-positive interneurons.
