Unbalanced dendritic inhibition of CA1 neurons drives spatial-memory deficits in the Ts2Cje Down syndrome model

Exaggerated synaptic inhibition is hypothesised to be a main cause of cognitive deficits in Down syndrome models. The authors identify triplication of the kainate receptor encoding gene Grik1 as the cause of memory deficits due to a reorganization of synaptic inhibition along the CA1 dendritic tree.
