New paper from UPenn MDPhD students past (Kevin Goff), present (@sophie_liebs) and future (Evan Jiang): .VIP-INs are dysfunctional in Dravet syndrome (Scn1a+/-) mice in vivo; deletion of Scn1a in VIP-INs dissociates autism-linked behavior from epilepsy.
cell.com
Goff et al. show that VIP-expressing neocortical GABAergic interneurons are dysfunctional during awake behavior in Dravet syndrome (Scn1a+/−) mice. Scn1a deletion in VIP-INs only yields behavioral...
