Postmortem studies of schizophrenia have yielded definitive evidence for abnormalities of cortical GABAergic neurons. However, few studies have delineated how the GABA neurons are functionally impaired and how their abnormalities cause symptoms of the illness. Thelin et al.(in this issue) recorded in vivo task-related spike firings of individual neurons in the primary auditory cortex in a mouse model of the 15q13. 3 microdeletion syndrome, which is associated with an approximately 10-fold increased risk for developing schizophrenia. The tasks used to elicit auditory responses were a paired click paradigm for the sensory gating assessment, and an auditory steady-state response (ASSR) paradigm to evoke network oscillatory activity at high gamma frequency, both of which are known to be impaired in patients with schizophrenia. They found that the Df (h15q13)/+ mice show decreased firing in both excitatory neurons and inhibitory interneurons in response to the auditory paired stimuli. The sustained responses of the neuronal firing to the ASSR stimuli at 80 Hz were also diminished in pyramidal neurons in the Df (h15q13)/+ mice. Interestingly, the interneurons of the
