CA1 pyramidal neuron: rebound spiking (Ascoli et al.2010)
Accession: 126776
The model demonstrates that CA1 pyramidal neurons support rebound spikes mediated by hyperpolarization-activated inward current (Ih), and normally masked by A-type potassium channels (KA). Partial KA reduction confined to one or few branches of the apical tuft may be sufficient to elicit a local spike following a train of synaptic inhibition. These data suggest that the plastic regulation of KA can provide a dynamic switch to unmask post-inhibitory spiking in CA1 pyramidal neurons, further increasing the signal processing power of the CA1 synaptic microcircuitry.

Usage:

Auto-launch from ModelDB or download and extract this archive and then
compile the mod files.  Start under windows by double-clicking the
mosinit.hoc file, under linux/unix by typing "nrngui mosinit.hoc", and
under mac OS X by dragging and dropping mosinit.hoc on the nrngui
icon.

Once the simulation is started press the buttons to run the model
under the different conditions shown in figure 2d:
