It is noteworthy that, via such mechanisms, alpha7 nAChR activation could trigger rebound burst firing in SLM interneurons even in the absence of excitation (256). Burst firing in SLM interneurons suppresses spikes in pyramidal neurons evoked by stimulation of Schaffer collaterals (134), and, thereby allows selective activation of the pyramidal cells via the perforant pathway.

On the other hand, when alpha4beta2 nAChRs are activated, both SR and SLM interneurons are inhibited, resulting in disinhibition of dendritic areas innervated by both neuron types. PubMed:19126755
