The external capsule can be seen running laterally of BLA and forming its border with piriform cortex. Note the stimulation electrode positioned in LEC and recording pipette in BLA. (C) Representative traces of EPSCs and IPSCs in a BLA PN in response to LEC stimulation (top: control; middle: gbz, 5 μM; bottom: DNQX, 20 μM, D-APV, 50 μM). Arrowheads: stimulation (artifacts truncated). Scale bars: 100 pA, 10 ms. (D) EPSCs blocked by DNQX/APV (Kruskal-Wallis test: p = 6.72 × 10−4; ncontrol = 8, 4, ngbz = 7, 4, nDNQX/APV = 7, 4). IPSCs blocked by gbz and DNQX/APV (Kruskal-Wallis test: p = 6.45 × 10−4; ncontrol = 8, 4, ngbz = 7, 4, nDNQX/APV = 7, 4). (E) Onset latency of IPSC is delayed relative to the EPSC (paired t-test: p=0.023, n = 8, 4).

A fast spiking phenotype distinguishes BLA Sst+ INs targeted by LEC afferents.

(A) Unsupervised clustering analysis revealed two clusters of Sst+ INs. Majority of Sst+ INs with a uEPSC present following LEC stimulation cluster in Group I (14/16, Sst+ INs with uEPSC; 60/105, all Sst+ INs). Majority of Sst+ INs with no response to LEC stimulation cluster in Group II (17/19, Sst+ INs without uEPSC; 45/105, all Sst+ INs). (B) Results of Random Forest model. Plot shows mean decrease in Gini impurity for each of the 15 parameters included in the model (nSst = 105, 23). Gini impurity measures how often a random Sst+ IN would be clustered incorrectly if labeled randomly according to the distribution of labels in the set.

(C) As for (A), but in wildtype littermates of the Sst- and PV-hM4Di mice. Scalebars: 50 pA, 50 ms. 10 μM CNO has no effect on EPSC amplitude in hM4Di-/- mice (EPSCCtrl = −93.18 [-48.19 /- 136.58] pA, EPSCCNO = −78.85 [−53.80 /- 102.11] pA, p=0.42, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, n = 12 cells, six mice).

Schematic of findings.

(A) FS Sst+ INs (purple) fire APs in response to LEC input to drive FFI onto BLA PNs. nFS Sst+ INs (pink) do not respond to LEC input. PV+ INs (green) respond with a subthreshold excitatory response to LEC input. (B) Inactivation of FS Sst+ IN removes the feedforward inhibitory control over BLA PNs. PV+ INs receive large uEPSC input from local BLA PNs compared to both Sst+ IN subtypes.
