| Name: | ventral telencephalon |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | area ventralis telencephali, subpallium |
| Definition: | Brain structure which is the ventral part of the telencephalon and is consists of periventricular nuclei surrounding the unpaired median ventricle and those which have migrated away from the ependyma. From Neuroanatomy of the Zebrafish Brain. |

| Name: | modulation of inhibitory postsynaptic potential |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | regulation of inhibitory postsynaptic potential |
| Definition: | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP). IPSP is a temporary decrease in postsynaptic membrane potential due to the flow of negatively charged ions into the postsynaptic cell. The flow of ions that causes an IPSP is an inhibitory postsynaptic current (IPSC) and makes it more difficult for the neuron to fire an action potential. |
