"The lack of PV [parvalbumin] immunoreactivity in VGLUT3[vesicular glutamate transporter type 3]-positive somata and boutons, the obligatory coexpression of VGLUT3 and CCK [cholecystokinin] in interneuronal somata and the perisomatic location of boutons double-labelled for GAD and VGLUT3 in the principal cell layers demonstrate that VGLUT3 is present in a distinct type of basket cell. Some basket cells expressing CCK but negative for PV also express VIP [vasoactive intestinal polypeptide] (reviewed in Freund & Buzsaki, 1996). However, in our material, neither VIP-positive cell bodies nor boutons were positive for VGLUT3. Therefore, the CCK- and VGLUT3-positive cells constitute a novel subtype of basket cell {CA1 Basket CCK+}."
Interpretation notes: Glutamatergic and GABAergic CCK- types in CA1 SLM_SR_SP_SO are probably vGlut3- by contrapositive logic
