Annotation genes
GAD1, LAMP5, RELN
Annotation rationales
LAMP5 interneurons are inhibitory cortical neurons, often superficial and RELN-positive, that target dendritic compartments and nearby interneurons.
Functional implications
They regulate dendritic integration, cortical state and the timing of local excitatory–inhibitory interactions.
