Non-selective excitatory feedback and precise spike timing produce selective relative inhibition

Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity and Feed-Forward Input Oscillations Produce Precise and Invariant Spike Phase-Locking

In the hippocampus and the neocortex, the coupling between local field potential (LFP) oscillations and the spiking of single neurons can be highly precise, across neuronal populations and cell types. Spike phase (i.e., the spike time with respect to a reference oscillation) is known to carry reliable information, both with phase-locking behavior and with more complex phase relationships, such ...

Precise spike timing in silicon

31 32 A fundamental question in neuroscience is how neurons perform precise operations despite inherent variability. This 33 question also applies to neuromorphic engineering, where low-power microchips emulate the brain using large 34 populations of diverse silicon neurons. Biological neurons in the auditory pathway display precise spike timing— 35 critical for sound localization and interpret...

Selective inhibition of glycosidases by feedback prodrugs.

Glycinergic "inhibition" mediates selective excitatory responses to combinations of sounds.

In the mustached bat's inferior colliculus (IC), combination-sensitive neurons display time-sensitive facilitatory interactions between inputs tuned to distinct spectral elements in sonar or social vocalizations. Here we compare roles of ionotropic receptors to glutamate (iGluRs), glycine (GlyRs), and GABA (GABA(A)Rs) in facilitatory combination-sensitive interactions. Facilitatory responses to...

Selective and Non-Selective Inhibition of Nitric Oxide Synthase in the In-Vitro Model of Gentamicin-Induced Acute Renal Failure in Rats

سابقه و هدف: در بخش های مختلف کلیه هر سه ایزوفرم نیتریک اکساید سنتاز (NOS) موجود می باشد. شواهدی دال بر اثرات سودمند فعالیت NOS اندوتلیالی (eNOS ) پس ازبرخی انواع آسیب های بافتی وجود دارد و به همین دلیل مهار کامل NOS در این شرایط موجب بدتر شدن عملکرد اعضا می شود. از سوی دیگر پیشنهاد شده که فعال شدن NOS القایی (iNOS) آسیب را تشدید و در نتیجه مهار آن ایجاد بهبودی می کند. در مطالعه حاضر احتمال سود...
