The basal excitatory synaptic transmission and density of asymmetric excitatory synapses in the stratum radiatum were also normal in L1-deficient mice. Since L1 is expressed not only by principal cells but also by inhibitory interneurons, we recorded inhibitory postsynaptic currents (IPSCs) evoked in CA1 pyramidal cells by minimal stimulation of perisomatic interneurons. L1-deficient mice showed a reduction in the mean amplitude of putative unitary IPSCs, higher values of the coefficient of amplitude variation, higher number of failures in transmitter release, and a reduction in frequency but not amplitude of miniature IPSCs. The use-dependent modulation of inhibitory transmission by paired-pulse or short tetanic stimulation was, however, normal in L1-deficient mice.
