Determinants of Spike Timing-Dependent Synaptic Plasticity
Recent studies show that the precise timing of presynaptic inputs and postsynaptic action potentials influences the strength and sign of synaptic plasticity. In this issue of Neuron, Sjöström and colleagues (2001) determine how this so-called spike timing-dependent plasticity depends on the frequency and strength of the presynaptic inputs.
متن کاملBiophysical and Phenomenological Models of Multiple Spike Interactions in Spike-timing Dependent Plasticity
Spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) is a form of associative synaptic modification which depends on the respective timing of pre- and post-synaptic spikes. The biophysical mechanisms underlying this form of plasticity are currently not known. We present here a biophysical model which captures the characteristics of STDP, such as its frequency dependency, and the effects of spike pair or sp...
متن کاملSpike timing, calcium signals and synaptic plasticity.
Plasticity at central synapses depends critically on the timing of presynaptic and postsynaptic action potentials. Key initial steps in synaptic plasticity involve the back-propagation of action potentials into the dendritic tree and calcium influx that depends nonlinearly on the action potential and synaptic input. These initial steps are now better understood. In addition, recent studies of p...
متن کاملSpike-timing-dependent synaptic plasticity and synaptic democracy in dendrites.
We explored in a computational study the effect of dendrites on excitatory synapses undergoing spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), using both cylindrical dendritic models and reconstructed dendritic trees. We show that even if the initial strength, g(peak), of distal synapses is augmented in a location independent manner, the efficacy of distal synapses diminishes following STDP and proxi...
متن کاملSpike timing dependent plasticity: mechanisms, significance, and controversies
Long-term modification of synaptic strength is one of the basic mechanisms of memory formation and activity-dependent refinement of neural circuits. This idea was purposed by Hebb to provide a basis for the formation of a cell assembly. Repetitive correlated activity of pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neurons can induce long-lasting synaptic strength modification, the direction and extent of whi...
