Root system chip-firing I: Interval-firing

open access: yes, 2018
Jim Propp recently introduced a variant of chip-firing on a line where the chips are given distinct integer labels. Hopkins, McConville, and Propp showed that this process is confluent from some (but not all) initial configurations of chips.

Lead exposure at firing ranges—a review

open access: yesEnvironmental Health, 2017
BackgroundLead (Pb) is a toxic substance with well-known, multiple, long-term, adverse health outcomes. Shooting guns at firing ranges is an occupational necessity for security personnel, police officers, members of the military, and increasingly a ...

The effects of changes in the environment on the spatial firing of hippocampal complex-spike cells

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 1987
Using the techniques set out in the preceding paper (Muller et al., 1987), we investigated the response of place cells to changes in the animal's environment. The standard apparatus used was a cylinder, 76 cm in diameter, with walls 51 cm high.

Cannabigerol modulates α2-adrenoceptor and 5-HT1A receptor-mediated electrophysiological effects on dorsal raphe nucleus and locus coeruleus neurons and anxiety behavior in rat

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
The pharmacological profile of cannabigerol (CBG), which acid form constitutes the main precursor of the most abundant cannabinoids, has been scarcely studied. It has been reported to target α2-adrenoceptor and 5-HT1A receptor.

Temporal code versus rate code for binary Information Sources

open access: yes, 2016
Neuroscientists formulate very different hypotheses about the nature of neural code. At one extreme, it has been argued that neurons encode information in relatively slow changes of individual spikes arriving "rates codes" and the irregularity in the ...

Decision time, slow inhibition, and theta rhythm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we examine decision making in a spiking neuronal network and show that longer time constants for the inhibitory neurons can decrease the reaction times and produce theta rhythm.We analyze the mechanism and find that the spontaneous firing

Absence of Visual Input Results in the Disruption of Grid Cell Firing in the Mouse

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2016
Summary Grid cells are spatially modulated neurons within the medial entorhinal cortex whose firing fields are arranged at the vertices of tessellating equilateral triangles [1].

Potential therapeutic targeting of BKCa channels in glioblastoma treatment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes current insights into the role of BKCa and mitoBKCa channels in glioblastoma biology, their potential classification as oncochannels, and the emerging pharmacological strategies targeting these channels, emphasizing the translational challenges in developing BKCa‐directed therapies for glioblastoma treatment.

Method of and apparatus for double-exposure holographic interferometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
Double-exposure holographic interferometry is carried out using first and second lasers responsive to respective applied firing signals for producing respective pulsed output beams. An optical system is provided oriented such that the output beams of the

The control of firing pattern in nigral dopamine neurons: burst firing

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 1984
In addition to firing in a single spiking mode, dopamine (DA) cells have been observed to fire in a bursting pattern with consecutive spikes in a burst displaying progressively decreasing amplitude and increasing duration. In vivo intracellular recording
