[Formation of cortical inhibition in ontogenesis]

Analysis of literature data about development of cortical inhibition allows suggesting that synaptical inhibition of cerebral cortex neurons begins to be realized almost simultaneously with beginning of their generation of background activity. From the moment of the appearance of inhibitory processes there have been functioning all kinds of cortical inhibition. Thereby, the main mechanisms realizing cortical inhibition in the mature cerebral cortex begin functioning from the moment of its inclusion in ontogenesis.
