“…Once reaching the GCL, abGCs receive functional GABAergic and glutamatergic synapses on their soma and proximal dendrites (Belluzzi et al, 2003; Katagiri et al, 2011; Kelsch et al, 2008; Panzanelli et al, 2009), which arise from local MTCs, deep short‐axon cells (dSACs), top‐down projections from the OC (including the anterior olfactory nucleus and anterior piriform cortex), and other cortical, limbic, and subcortical projections (Arenkiel et al, 2011; Balu et al, 2007; Deshpande et al, 2013; Hanson et al, 2020; Komano‐Inoue et al, 2014; Lepousez et al, 2014; Padmanabhan et al, 2018). Notably, abGCs also receive various non‐synaptic neuromodulatory inputs, such as acetylcholine from the horizontal limb of the diagonal band of Broca (HDB), serotonin (5‐HT) from the dorsal raphe, noradrenaline from the locus coeruleus (Lepousez et al, 2015), and oxytocin (OT) from the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (Pekarek et al, 2022). GABAergic input initially predominates abGC input at early stages.…”
