Deskripsi

Myelination optimizes conduction speed of excitatory neurons. However, whether myelination of interneurons (INs) refines cortical networks is unclear. Here, the authors show that INs myelination shapes feedforward inhibition of mouse cortical sensory circuits and impacts whisker-mediated behaviour.
