A quantitative study of neurochemically defined excitatory interneuron populations in laminae I-III of the mouse spinal cord

Conclusions These results suggest that cells expressing neurotensin, NKB or GRP form largely non-overlapping sets that are likely to correspond to functional populations. In contrast, SST is widely expressed by excitatory interneurons that are likely to be functionally heterogeneous.
