CA1 pyramidal neuron: as a 2-layer NN and subthreshold synaptic summation (Poirazi et al 2003)

Accession:20212
We developed a CA1 pyramidal cell model calibrated with a broad spectrum of in vitro data. Using simultaneous dendritic and somatic recordings, and combining results for two different response measures (peak vs. mean EPSP), two different stimulus formats (single shock vs. 50 Hz trains), and two different spatial integration conditions (within vs. between-branch summation), we found the cell's subthreshold responses to paired inputs are best described as a sum of nonlinear subunit responses, where the subunits correspond to different dendritic branches. In addition to suggesting a new type of experiment and providing testable predictions, our model shows how conclusions regarding synaptic arithmetic can be influenced by an array of seemingly innocuous experimental design choices.

 * Revision 1.7  1999/03/24 18:19:21  brannon
 * Ok, now NEURON should be happy.
 *
 * Revision 1.6  1999/03/24 18:09:25  brannon
 * The end of newshiftsyn files is not compatible with NEURON's vector
 * scanf() function. Working on this.
 *
 * Revision 1.5  1998/10/22 10:05:03  brannon
 * The compiler croaked on nested comments so I fixed my attempt to
 * simply comment out and copy the old code by removing the old code and
 * associated comments.
 *
 * Revision 1.4  1998/10/22 10:02:58  brannon
 * I changed the sprintf which created filenames to write the p_seed in
 * integer as opposed to float from.
 *
 * Revision 1.3  1998/05/07 19:33:44  brannon
 * rm shiftsyn.log -> rm -f shiftsyn.log
 * My runs were held up because it was waiting for a reply to removal of
 * a previous shiftsyn.log
 *
 * Revision 1.2  1998/04/08 18:33:29  brannon
 * Write a \n after each dt of synaptic input.
 *
 * Revision 1.1  1998/04/08 18:32:48  brannon
 * Initial revision
 *
 * Revision 1.12  1997/04/15 19:35:59  niebur
 * *** empty log message ***
 *
 * Revision 1.11  1995/02/01  01:55:28  ernst
 * Eliminated finite loop condition: if s=1, the restart in the main loop after
 * enforce_refrac failed (cond=1) was ineffective, because make_train_offset
 * and make-spike trains each time gave identical results. This happened because
 * the sigmas in them contained terms 1-s and thus became zero.
 *
 * This has been corrected by restarting the spiketrain now COMPLETELY
 * (ie, all synapses) when that occurs.
 *
 * PS this condition occurred for " shiftsyn testfile 100 500 0.1 100 1 0.2 6074"
 *
 * Revision 1.10  1995/01/28  22:00:46  ernst
 * Writing now a log file at the beginning of the run which is
 * deleted at its successful completion.
 *
 * Revision 1.9  1995/01/28  08:04:27  ernst
 * Now enforcing refractory period (in new routine enforce_refrac).
 * Also found out that the Numerical recipes generator has a problem
 * if its seed is too large (> 54000, apparently). The reason is
 * unknown, but I do not allow such large seeds anymore.
 *
 * Revision 1.8  1995/01/20  22:13:26  ernst
 * Added more debugging message in context with the consistency check in write_to_disk.
 *
 * Revision 1.7  1995/01/18  02:41:29  ernst
 * Added a global variable ("errfile") which is identical to outfilename and
 * which is printed out each time there is an error message. This way, it will
 * be possible to determine which run makes a problem in a series of many runs
 * in which the shell might garble the order of messages.
 *
 * Revision 1.6  1995/01/18  02:01:03  ernst
 * removed debugging messages
 *
 * Revision 1.5  1994/10/29  02:25:07  ernst
 * Fixed a problem in  make_spike_trains: the sigma of the Gaussian there
 * was dependend on the total time. There is no reason this should be
 * the case.
 *
 * Revision 1.4  1993/10/04  08:11:56  ernst
 * Introduced computation and writing to a file of
 * the total activity at a given time (variable totact).
 *
 * Revision 1.3  1993/09/23  01:17:08  ernst
 * Introduced larger scatter for shift between spike trains.
 * The scatter is now in units of n_tot, NOT in units of the
 * average spiking frequency.
