nervous system
• following infection with an andenovirus-cre, the axons of basket interneurons are thinner and have reduced numbers of finer branches especially terminal branches compared to in control cells
• following infection with an andenovirus-cre, terminal branches have fewer and smaller boutons around pyramidal cell somata throughout the innervation field (5.0+/-0.3 boutons per soma compared to 8.9+/-0.4 boutons per soma in control cells)
• however, NO711 treatment following infection with an andenovirus-cre rescues perisomatic bouton formation and increases complexity of ternimal branches, bouton density, and size of perisomatic boutons while treatment with diazepam treated cells show much less pronounced perisomatic synapse defects

nervous system
• cultured interneurons from brain slices exhibit reduced and slower cell migration to the olfactory bulb compared with wild-type interneurons
• at E13.5, Gad67-GFP+ interneurons in the rostral ventral forebrain exhibit decreased net rate of migration, shorter somal translocation, fewer translocation per hour, longer pauses, and fewer direction changes compared with wild-type interneurons
• at E15.5, migration of dorsal lateral ganglionic eminence-derived interneurons is disrupted compared to in wild-type mice
• at E18.5, cells in the anterior subventricular zone exhibit decreased migration to the olfactory bulb compared with wild-type cells
• mice exhibit ectopic streaks of Gad67(Gad1)-GFP+ interneurons extending radially from the anterior subventricular zone in the rostral cortex unlike in wild-type mice
• at E14.5 and E17.5, mice exhibit fewer proliferation cells at the ventricular surface and increased proliferating cells at the cortical plate compared with wild-type mice
