The terminal abdominal ganglion of the crayfish contains about 650 cells, approximately 1/2 of which are local. In the mechanosensory system, an identified, non-spiking local interneuron mediates lateral inhibition (across the midline) of a highly restricted set of projecting sensory interneurons. Our evidence suggests that this neuron is the exclusive pathway for the form of lateral inhibition that we studied. The 'precurrent' mode of inhibition found in this system causes responses to stimuli that are common to both sides to be attenuated, and conversely will enhance the difference signal produced by partially lateralized input.
小龙虾的终腹神经节包含约650个细胞，其中约一半是局部神经元。在机械感觉系统中，一个已被识别的、不产生动作电位的局部中间神经元介导了一组高度受限的投射感觉中间神经元的侧向抑制（跨越中线）。我们的证据表明，该神经元是我们所研究的侧向抑制形式的唯一途径。在这个系统中发现的“前馈”抑制模式会使对两侧共有的刺激的反应减弱，反之会增强由部分侧向化输入产生的差异信号。
