BNSTALG Type I neuronHammack et al. (Hammack)

Type I neurons accounted for 29% of all recorded BNSTALG neurons, had a resting membrane potential (Vm) of -60.0 ± 0.6 mV, and a mean input resistance (Rm) of 452.6 ± 30.0 MOhms. In response to transient (750-ms) hyperpolarizing current injection, Type I neurons exhibited a characteristic depolarizing sag (rectification) in their voltage response that was both time dependent and voltage dependent, such that the amplitude and rate of onset of the rectification increased with increasing membrane hyperpolarization (see Fig. 2B, Type I). Type I neurons also exhibited a transient depolarizing rebound potential on termination of the hyperpolarizing current injection, the amplitude and rate of onset of which also increased with increasing levels of initial membrane hyperpolarization.partial correspondence
Collator note: this relation is inferred by the collator on the basis of morphology of both neurons populations (soma size, and possibly shape), and location in the same nucleus. The spiny neurons with the chandelier-like axons may be one the of several classes that express 5HTA1 receptors in BST. See Larriva-Sahd, 2006 for a detailed cytological description.Marvin E., Scrogin K. & Dudas B.Mihail Bota
transitional neuronLarriva-Sahd (Larriva-Sahd)

At the sites where the Ju interacts with adjacent nuclei and tracts, there is a heterogeneous group of neurons that are here classified as transitional neurons.partial correspondence
Collator note: this relation is inferred by the collator on the basis of morphology of both neurons populations (soma size, shape and pattern of dendritic arborizations), and location in the same nucleus. The transitional neurons may be one the of several classes that express 5HTA1 receptors in BST.
