inhibitory neuron

Neurons {inhibitory neuron}| that inhibit other neurons fire faster than excitatory neurons, have few spines on dendrites {smooth neuron, inhibition}, and synapse directly on dendrites, cell bodies, or dendritic stumps, closer to axon hillock than excitatory axons. Inhibitory axons connect horizontally, only up to 100 to 200 microns away, except for basket cells.
