Sodium channel cluster, βIV-spectrin and ankyrinG positive “hot spots” on dendritic segments of parvalbumin-containing neurons and some other neurons in the …

Axon initial segments (AISs) and nodes of Ranvier are considered as the sites for spike
generation, which are highly enriched in sodium channels and some cytoskeletal molecules
such as ankyrinG, βIV-spectrin. Previously, we showed that most parvalbumin positive cells
in the external plexiform layer (EPL) of the mouse main olfactory bulb (MOB) were anaxonic
but displayed some patch-like βIV-spectrin and sodium channel cluster positive segments
on their dendrites. In this study we further characterized those particular dendritic segments …
