Inhibitory regulation of calcium transients in prefrontal dendritic spines is compromised by a nonsense Shank3 mutation

Farhan Ali, Ling-Xiao Shao, Danielle M. Gerhard…·Alex C. Kwan

This study shows that a Shank3 mutation causes elevated calcium in dendritic spines due to reduced inhibition from SST interneurons, and correcting this improves learning deficits.

Ketamine disinhibits dendrites and enhances calcium signals in prefrontal dendritic spines

Farhan Ali, Danielle M. Gerhard, Katherine Sweasy…·Alex C. Kwan

This study shows that ketamine suppresses SST interneurons, leading to increased calcium signals in dendritic spines of pyramidal neurons in the medial prefrontal cortex of awake mice.
