OBJECTIVE
Layer 3 (L3) pyramidal neurons projecting to the primate dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) convey essential information for core cognitive processes. Alterations in these neurons could contribute to cognitive deficits in schizophrenia. This study was designed to determine whether DLPFC-projecting L3 pyra...

Schizophrenia (SCZ) is associated with cortical GABAergic dysfunction, but whether inhibitory interneurons are lost or persist in an altered molecular state remains unresolved. Here, we harmonized seven prefrontal post-mortem single-nucleus RNA-seq datasets onto a fine-grained taxonomy of cortical cell types and meta-a...

Cortical GABAergic interneurons exhibit remarkable diversity of morphological, electrophysiological and molecular features, which underlies their specialized roles in circuit functions. Molecular characteristics have proven to be a reasonable starting point in the past for classification, grouping them into parvalbumin...

Abstract Background The recently evolved dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is essential to higher cognition, working memory and abstract thought, with pyramidal cell microcircuits in layer III that are able to excite each other to keep information “in mind” without sensory stimulation1,2. However, these pyramidal...

Evidence suggesting that L3PN morphology and physiology differ significantly across PFC, PPC and V1 in primates is reviewed, suggesting a primate-enhanced regional variability that may be the substrate for area-specific L3PN vulnerability in schizophrenia.
