| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Little is known about inhibitory interneurons in humans. We sought to clarify whether prepulse inhibition (PPI) in the auditory cortex reflected inhibition via interneurons using magnetoencephalography. An abrupt increase in sound pressure by 10 dB in a continuous sound was used to evoke the test response, and PPI was observed by inserting a weak (5 dB increase for 1 ms) prepulse. The time course of the inhibition evaluated by prepulses presented at 10-800 ms before the test stimulus showed several temporally distinct inhibitions peaking at approximately 20-60 and 600 ms. We separated at least two inhibitory mechanisms pharmacologically using baclofen (GABA-B agonist) and diazepam (GABA-A allosteric modulator). Although many diseases such as schizophrenia may have deficits in the inhibitory system, we do not have appropriate methods to evaluate them; therefore, the easy and non-invasive method described herein may be useful clinically.
