Abstract

Stimulus-specific adaptation is a key feature of sensory systems, where the repeated presentation of a stimulus results in diminishing neuronal responses specifically to that stimulus, but not to a different stimulus. Cortical neurons display varying degrees of stimulus-specific adaptation, with cortical circuits shaping the dynamics of these responses. Here, we use calcium imaging and optogenetic approaches to assess the contributions of SOM and PV neurons to stimulus-specific adaptation in the mouse auditory cortex. We find opposing and complementary effects of SOM and PV neurons on the adaptation of principal neurons which manifest as context-dependent SOM neuron-mediated enhancement and PV-neuron mediated suppression of responses that depend on the temporal repetition rate of the sounds. Our results suggest that SOM and PV neurons can engage in multiple operating regimes that exist in a continuum during sensory processing.

Code

The paper says that its authors' code is available on request: it was not published with the paper, so there is nothing to verify.

The paper's code and data availability statement is in the Data section.

Tracing map

A tracing map links a paper to the code its authors published: this paper has none (its code is available on request), so it has no map.

Data

No dataset and no data link were found in the paper.

Data and code availability

• All data generated in this study are available in the article. • This study does not report original code. • Any additional information required to reanalyze the data reported in this study is available from the lead contact upon request.
