“…Importantly, dendrites are positioned at the interface between synaptic inputs and the intrinsic properties of CIN. While changes in synaptic transmission and intrinsic excitability of CINs have received attention in models of PD, HD and other movement disorders ( Abudukeyoumu et al, 2019 ; Aceves Buendia et al, 2019 ; Choi et al, 2020 ; Ding et al, 2006 ; Ding et al, 2011 ; Eskow Jaunarajs et al, 2015 ; Mallet et al, 2019 ; Paz et al, 2021 ; Pisani et al, 2007 ; Plotkin and Goldberg, 2019 ; Poppi et al, 2021 ; Tanimura et al, 2019 ; Tubert and Murer, 2021 ), studying alterations in dendritic excitability in these models is a complementary approach that remains largely unchartered territory.…”
