Tailoring inputs to achieve maximal neuronal firing
We consider the constrained optimization of excitatory synaptic input patterns to maximize spike generation in leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) and theta model neurons. In the case of discrete input kicks with a fixed total magnitude, optimal input timings and strengths are identified for each model using phase plane arguments. In both cases, optimal features relate to finding an input level at w...
متن کاملp75 and TrkA signaling regulates sympathetic neuronal firing patterns via differential modulation of voltage-gated currents.
Neurotrophins such as nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) act through the tropomyosin-related receptor tyrosine kinases (Trk) and the pan-neurotrophin receptor (p75) to regulate complex developmental and functional properties of neurons. While NGF activates both receptor types in sympathetic neurons, differential signaling through TrkA and p75 can result in wi...
متن کاملTime Cognition: Entangled Neuronal Firing
The neuroscience of time frequently focuses on either measuring short time intervals (sensory timing) or reproducing them (motor timing); during cognition, the two are integrated. New experiments using a combined sensory and motor timing task suggest that neuronal firing during the sensory and motor phases are linked.
متن کاملContributions of T-type calcium channel isoforms to neuronal firing.
Low voltage-activated (LVA) T-type calcium channels play critical roles in the excitability of many cell types and are a focus of research aimed both at understanding the physiological basis of calcium channel-dependent signaling and the underlying pathophysiology associated with hyperexcitability disorders such as epilepsy. These channels play a critical role towards neuronal firing in both c...
متن کاملRelating Neuronal Firing Patterns to Functional Differentiation of Cerebral Cortex
It has been empirically established that the cerebral cortical areas defined by Brodmann one hundred years ago solely on the basis of cellular organization are closely correlated to their function, such as sensation, association, and motion. Cytoarchitectonically distinct cortical areas have different densities and types of neurons. Thus, signaling patterns may also vary among cytoarchitectonic...
