Calcium and potassium currents of olfactory bulb juxtaglomerular cells (Masurkar and Chen 2011)
Accession: 140462
Inward and outward currents of the olfactory bulb juxtaglomerular cells are characterized in the experiments and modeling in these two Masurkar and Chen 2011 papers.

These NEURON simulator files were contributed by Arjun Masurkar.

Usage:

Autolaunch from ModelDB or download, extract, and compile the mod
files in the archive with nrnivmodl (unix), mknrndll (pc or mac) and
start with the command "nrngui mosinit.hoc" (unix), double click on
mosinit.hoc (windows), or drag and drop the mosinit.hoc file onto the
nrngui icon (mac).

Once the simulation has started:

Press the button labeled "Figure 7c Marsurkar, Chen 2011 (Ca2+)" and
after a few seconds you should see a graph like:

Alternatively Press Init & Run on the Run Control panel (might be
buried under other windows) to run a single pulse simulation.
