"In stratum lacunosum-moleculare all cells immunopositive for alpha-actinin-2 (n = 50) coexpressed COUP-TFII and a high level of the alpha1 subunit of the GABAA receptor in the somatodendritic membrane (GABAA-alpha 1, n = 48), and the majority was also immunopositive for reelin (n = 45) (Fig. 5A). In addition, nearly half of the alpha-actinin-2-expressing cells were colabeled for low levels of nNOS [neuronal nitric oxide synthase] (44.0 +/- 2.7%, n = 50) or NPY (52.1 +/- 1.8%, n = 48), and virtually none coexpressed the Ca2 -binding protein CR [calretinin] (Fig. 5A)."
Interpretation notes: Glutamatergic and GABAergic a-act2+ types in CA1 SLM are probably RLN+; Clopper-Pearson confidence interval lower bound = 78.2% (n = 45/50)
