Marker genes
FLT1, HTR1E, HTR2C, IGFBP5, PCDH7, RYR3, SYT2
Annotation genes
HTR1E, HTR2C, SYT2
Annotation rationales
HTR1E/HTR2C provide serotonergic modulation of VIP excitability; SYT2 supports fast, synchronous peptide/neurotransmitter release; RYR3 modulates intracellular Ca²⁺ signaling.
Functional implications
Translates serotonergic state into rapid adjustments of disinhibition, aligning dendritic integration and circuit flexibility with arousal, mood, and behavioral context.
