Disynaptic inhibition between neocortical pyramidal cells mediated by Martinotti cells. (2007, background): “The neocortical microcircuit is characterized by a high degree of synaptic recurrence, in which excitatory, inhibitory, feed-forward, and feedback pathways are interweaved (Douglas and Martin, 1990; Markram et al., 2004; Miles, 1990; Szabadics et al., 2006; Thomson et al., 2002).”
