Intracortical Network Effects Preserve Thalamocortical Input Efficacy in a Cortex Without Layers

Abstract: Layer IV (LIV) of the rodent somatosensory cortex contains the somatotopic barrel field. Barrels receive much of the sensory input to the cortex through innervation by thalamocortical axons from the ventral posteromedial nucleus. In the reeler mouse, the absence of cortical layers results in the formation of mispositioned barrel-equivalent clusters of LIV fated neurons. Although functional imaging suggests that sensory input activates the cortex, little is known about the cellular and synaptic properties of id… Show more

“…Molecular markers typically expressed in a layer-specific fashion are still expressed by displaced neurons (Katsuyama and Terashima, 2009; Boyle et al, 2011; Wagener et al, 2016), suggesting that their molecular identity is not compromised by the lack of lamination. The morphology of defined neuronal types has been investigated in some detail and is relatively unchanged (Guy et al, 2016), although some excitatory types see a reduction in the number of dendritic spines (Niu et al, 2008), and some inhibitory types have longer dendrites with more branches (Yabut et al, 2007). …”

“…Of course one may wonder whether these morphologically aberrant reeler neurons have also aberrant electrophysiological properties. However, what little evidence exists shows that differences are slim: neurons in the neocortex and the hippocampus retain normal firing patterns and most other intrinsic properties (Silva et al, 1991; Kowalski et al, 2010; Guy et al, 2016). …”
