| abstract |
Artificial expression constructs for selectively modulating gene expression in selected central nervous system cell types are described. The artificial expression constructs can be used to selectively express synthetic genes or modify gene expression in excitatory cortical neurons, such as primarily within cortical layers 2/3, 4, 5, and 6 and including those with extratelencephalic (ET) projections, intratelencephalic (IT) projections, and pyramidal tract (PT) projections, among others. |
