interneuroners
Interneurons, the standard term for neurons that connect other neurons within the central nervous system, form local circuits that integrate and process neural information. The term “interneuroners” is a nonstandard form and is rarely used in scientific literature.
Interneurons are highly diverse in their morphology, neurotransmitter phenotype, and connectivity. A large fraction of cortical
Development and placement in circuits: Interneurons largely originate outside the cortex, in regions such as the
Function: By providing inhibition or disinhibition, interneurons regulate timing, synchronization, and gain across neural networks. They
Clinical and research relevance: Alterations in interneuron function and the balance of excitation and inhibition are
