Dendritic sodium spikes endow neurons with inverse firing rate response to correlated synaptic activity

2017-05-14

Abstract excerpt

Many neurons possess dendrites enriched with sodium channels and are capable of generating action potentials. However, the role of dendritic sodium spikes remain unclear. Here, we study computational models of neurons to investigate the functional effects of dendritic spikes. In agreement with previous studies, we found that point neurons or neurons with passive dendrites increase their somatic firing rate in resp...
