The hippocampus has been implicated in modulating anxiety. It interacts with a variety of
brain regions, both cortical and subcortical areas regulating emotion and stress responses …

In this review, we discuss the significance of the synaptic excitation/inhibition (E/I) balance in
the context of homeostatic plasticity, whose primary goal is thought to maintain neuronal …

Homeostatic mechanisms stabilize neuronal activity in vivo, but whether this process gives
rise to balanced network dynamics is unknown. Here, we continuously monitored the …

Neuroinflammation impacts the brain and cognitive behavior through microglial activation. In
this study, we determined the temporal sequence from microglial activation to synaptic …

Diverse inhibitory neurons in the mammalian brain shape circuit connectivity and dynamics
through mechanisms of synaptic plasticity. Inhibitory plasticity can establish …

Understanding how excitatory (E) and inhibitory (I) inputs are integrated by neurons requires
monitoring their subthreshold behavior. We probed the subthreshold dynamics using …

Many studies have shown that the excitation and inhibition received by cortical neurons
remain roughly balanced across many conditions. A key question for understanding the …

Functional neuroimaging techniques are widely applied to investigations of human cognition
and disease. The most commonly used among these is blood oxygen level-dependent …

The balance between excitation and inhibition in neuronal circuits has drawn more and
more attention in recent years, due to its proposed multifaceted functions in the normal …

Inhibitory control is essential for the regulation of neuronal network activity, where excitatory
and inhibitory synapses can act synergistically, reciprocally, and antagonistically. Sustained …
