| A Model of Multiple Spike Initiation Zones in the Leech C-interneuron (Crisp 2009) |
| Accession: 116575 |
The leech C-interneuron and its electrical synapse with the S-interneuron exhibit unusual properties: an asymmetric delay when impulses travel from one soma to the other, and graded C-interneuron impulse amplitudes under elevated divalent cation concentrations. These properties have been simulated using a SNNAP model in which the C-interneuron has multiple, independent spike initiation zones associated with individual electrical junctions with the C-interneuron.

Usage:
Make sure you have SNNAP installed and started according to the
instructions at http://snnap.uth.tmc.edu/content/downloads.htm
After you load the simulation and press start you should see figure 2
