The kinetics of multibranch integration on the dendritic arbor of CA1 pyramidal neurons
The process by which synaptic inputs separated in time and space are integrated by the dendritic arbor to produce a sequence of action potentials is among the most fundamental signal transformations that takes place within the central nervous system. Some aspects of this complex process, such as integration at the level of individual dendritic branches, have been extensively studied. But other ...
متن کاملImpact of Active Dendrites and Structural Plasticity on the Memory Capacity of Neural Tissue
We consider the combined effects of active dendrites and structural plasticity on the storage capacity of neural tissue. We compare capacity for two different modes of dendritic integration: (1) linear, where synaptic inputs are summed across the entire dendritic arbor, and (2) nonlinear, where each dendritic compartment functions as a separately thresholded neuron-like summing unit. We calcula...
متن کاملDistinct developmental modes and lesion-induced reactions of dendrites of two classes of Drosophila sensory neurons.
Little has been understood about the underlying mechanisms that generate the morphological diversity of dendritic trees. Dendritic arborization neurons in Drosophila provide an excellent model system to tackle this question, and they are classified into classes I-IV in order of increasing arbor complexity. Here we have developed transgenic green fluorescent protein markers for class I or class ...
متن کاملState-dependent dendritic computation in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons.
Depending on the behavioral state, hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons receive very distinct patterns of synaptic input and likewise produce very different output patterns. We have used simultaneous dendritic and somatic recordings and multisite glutamate uncaging to investigate the relationship between synaptic input pattern, the form of dendritic integration, and action potential output in CA1 ...
متن کاملInteractions with Astroglia Influence the Shape of the Developing Dendritic Arbor and Restrict Dendrite Growth Independent of Promoting Synaptic Contacts
Astroglia play key roles in the development of neurons, ranging from regulating neuron survival to promoting synapse formation, yet basic questions remain about whether astrocytes might be involved in forming the dendritic arbor. Here, we used cultured hippocampal neurons as a simple in vitro model that allowed dendritic growth and geometry to be analyzed quantitatively under conditions where t...
