Outline of Final Research Achievements

Slow-wave oscillations, the predominant brain rhythm during sleep, are composed of Up/Down cycles. Depolarizing Up-states contain spindle and gamma components.
But it is unknown how diverse subtypes of neurons affect to gamma/spindle waves.
In this study, I recorded neural activity from cortical neuron subtypes (CCS, CPn and FS cells) from layer 5 and analyzed their relation to the gamma/spindle rhythms. I found that modulated cell ratio and firing phase in spindle/gamma oscillation were dependent on cell subtype and sublayer. These results suggest that firing activity of diverse neuron subtypes is highly associated with brain rhythms.
