Comb-like models for transport along spiny dendrites
We suggest a modification of a comb model to describe anomalous transport in spiny dendrites. Geometry of the comb structure consisting of a one-dimensional backbone and lateral branches makes it possible to describe anomalous diffusion, where dynamics inside fingers corresponds to spines, while the backbone describes diffusion along dendrites. The presented analysis establishes that the fracti...
متن کاملFractional cable models for spiny neuronal dendrites.
Cable equations with fractional order temporal operators are introduced to model electrotonic properties of spiny neuronal dendrites. These equations are derived from Nernst-Planck equations with fractional order operators to model the anomalous subdiffusion that arises from trapping properties of dendritic spines. The fractional cable models predict that postsynaptic potentials propagating alo...
متن کاملAnomalous transport and nonlinear reactions in spiny dendrites.
We present a mesoscopic description of the anomalous transport and reactions of particles in spiny dendrites. As a starting point we use two-state Markovian model with the transition probabilities depending on residence time variable. The main assumption is that the longer a particle survives inside spine, the smaller becomes the transition probability from spine to dendrite. We extend a linear...
متن کاملMicrotubule-based transport along axons, dendrites and axonemes.
MTs in cytoplasmic extensions including axons, dendrites and axonemes serve as polarized tracks for vectorial intracellular transport driven by MT-based motor proteins. Although axons and axonemes serve very different functions, increasing evidence suggests that the transport events, MT organization and the motors involved in their formation and function are conserved. Thus, there are obvious s...
