Neural activity responsiveness by maturation of inhibition underlying critical period plasticity by Ibuki Matsumoto, Sou Nobukawa, Sou Nobukawa, Sou Nobukawa, Sou Nobukawa, Takashi Kanamaru, Takashi Kanamaru, Yusuke Sakemi, Yusuke Sakemi, Nina Sviridova, Nina Sviridova, Tomoki Kurikawa, Nobuhiko Wagatsuma, Kazuyuki Aihara, Kazuyuki Aihara

“…Accumulating evidence indicates that the maturation of inhibitory circuits, such as gamma-aminobutyric acid and parvalbumin-positive interneurons, plays a crucial role in CPs and contributes to generating gamma oscillations. A previous theory of the CP mechanism suggested that the maturation of inhibition suppresses internally driven spontaneous activity and enables synaptic plasticity to respond to external stimuli. …”
