“…Although the mechanism that drives the rhythmic activity of the glomerular network is at present unclear, external tufted (ET) cells, a population of juxtaglomerular cells, have recently received much attention (Hayar et al, 2004a(Hayar et al, ,b, 2005Antal et al, 2006;Zhou et al, 2006;Ma and Lowe, 2007;Liu and Shipley, 2008). These glutamatergic neurons fire bursts of action potentials (APs), receive monosynaptic inputs from olfactory neurons, and establish excitatory synaptic connections on periglomerular and short axon cells, two other types of juxtaglomerular neurons (Hayar et al, 2004a(Hayar et al, ,b, 2005.…”
