abstract = {Neocortical lamina 6B (L6B) is a largely unexplored layer
with a very heterogeneous cellular composition. To date,
only little is known about L6B neurons on a systematic and
quantitative basis. We investigated the morphological and
electrophysiological properties of excitatory L6B neurons in
the rat somatosensory barrel cortex using whole-cell
patch-clamp recordings and simultaneous biocytin fillings.
Subsequent histological processing and computer-assisted 3D
reconstructions provided the basis for a classification of
excitatory L6B neurons according to their structural and
functional characteristics. Three distinct clusters of
excitatory L6B neurons were identified: (C1) pyramidal
neurons with an apical dendrite pointing towards the pial
surface, (C2) neurons with a prominent, "apical"-like
dendrite not oriented towards the pia, and (C3) multipolar
spiny neurons without any preferential dendritic
orientation. The second group could be further subdivided
into three categories termed inverted, "tangentially"
oriented and "horizontally" oriented neurons. Furthermore,
based on the axonal domain two subcategories of L6B
pyramidal cells were identified that had either a more
barrel-column confined or an extended axonal field. The
classification of excitatory L6B neurons provided here may
serve as a basis for future studies on the structure,
function, and synaptic connectivity of L6B neurons.},
