Modulation of Electrical Synapses and Excitability by Dopamine Receptors in the Thalamic Reticular Nucleus Academic Background The Thalamic Reticular Nucleus (TRN) is a thin shell of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic inhibitory neurons in the thalamus. These neurons are coupled via gap junctions and regulate the transmission of sensory information fr...

The Regulatory Role of Dopamine Receptors in the Thalamic Reticular Nucleus: A Study on Neuronal Excitability and Electrical Synapses Academic Background The Thalamic Reticular Nucleus (TRN) is a crucial inhibitory neuronal network in the brain, responsible for regulating the transmission of sensory information between the thalamus and the cortex. ...
