Accession:266823
"... we used compartmental biophysical models of Cl- dynamics simulating either a simple ball-and-stick topology or a reconstructed CA3 neuron. These computational experiments demonstrated that glutamatergic co-stimulation enhances GABA receptor-mediated Cl- influx at low and attenuates or reverses the Cl- efflux at high initial [Cl-]i. The size of glutamatergic influence on GABAergic Cl--fluxes depends on the conductance, decay kinetics, and localization of glutamatergic inputs. Surprisingly, the glutamatergic shift in GABAergic Cl--fluxes is invariant to latencies between GABAergic and glutamatergic inputs over a substantial interval..."

COMMENT

Chloride accumulation and diffusion with decay (time constant tau) to resting level cli0.
The decay approximates a reversible chloride pump with first order kinetics.
To eliminate the chloride pump, just use this hoc statement
To make the time constant effectively "infinite".
tau and the resting level are both RANGE variables

Diffusion model is modified from Ca diffusion model in Hines & Carnevale:
Expanding NEURON with NMODL, Neural Computation 12: 839-851, 2000 (Example 8)
