adjectivepallidocortical (not comparable)
- not comparableanatomyRelating to the globus pallidus and the cerebral cortex
Like canonical GP cells, pallidocortical cell types are innervated by iSPNs and dSPNs of the dorsal striatum and glutamatergic inputs from STN. Thus GP neurons are positioned to respond to the major BG pathways and coordinate activity throughout the brain using synaptic inhibition[31 ,32 ].
