INT2

This cell type is one of three newly described interneuron types in the dataset. Due to its dense axonal arborisations and regular boutons, its morphology is similar to that of the fast-spiking interneuron type found in the mammalian striatum. However, closer analysis revealed morphological and connectivity differences between the three types. Of the three newly described interneuron types, INT2 has the smallest soma and the greatest number of spines on its dendrites. INT2 accounts for 1.2% of adult neurons.
