Imbalance of Excitation and Inhibition at Threshold Level In the Auditory Cortex
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2015 The interplay of cortical excitation and inhibition is a fundamental feature of cortical information processing. Excitation and inhibition in single cortical neurons are balanced in their response to optimal sensory stimulation due to thalamocortical ...

Phenomenological incorporation of nonlinear dendritic integration using integrate-and-fire neuronal frameworks. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 It has been discovered recently in experiments that the dendritic integration of excitatory glutamatergic inputs and inhibitory GABAergic inputs in hippocampus CA1 pyramidal neurons obeys a simple arithmetic rule as V(S)(Exp) ≈ V(E)(Exp) + V(I)(Exp) + kV(

Preparation of Pre- and Post-synaptic Density Fraction from Mouse Cortex
Bio-Protocol, 2013 The understanding of the organization of postsynaptic signaling systems at excitatory synapses has been aided by the identification of proteins in the postsynaptic density (PSD) fraction, a subcellular fraction enriched in structures with the morphology ...

Brain injury impairs working memory and prefrontal circuit function
Frontiers in Neurology, 2015 More than 2.5 million Americans suffer a traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year. Even mild to moderate traumatic brain injury causes long-lasting neurological effects.

Aberrant excitatory rewiring of layer V pyramidal neurons early after neocortical trauma
Neurobiology of Disease, 2016 Lesioned neuronal circuits form new functional connections after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). In humans and animal models, aberrant excitatory connections that form after TBI may contribute to the pathogenesis of post-traumatic epilepsy.
