Postsynaptic Potential Energy as Determinant of Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2022 Metabolic energy can be used as a unifying principle to control neuronal activity. However, whether and how metabolic energy alone can determine the outcome of synaptic plasticity remains unclear.

Auditory Stimuli Coding by Postsynaptic Potential and Local Field Potential Features. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The relation between physical stimuli and neurophysiological responses, such as action potentials (spikes) and Local Field Potentials (LFP), has recently been experimented in order to explain how neurons encode auditory information.

Mouse-derived Synaptosomes Trypsin Cleavage Assay to Characterize Synaptic Protein Sub-localization [PDF]
Bio-ProtocolNeurons communicate through neurotransmission at highly specialized junctions called synapses. Each neuron forms numerous synaptic connections, consisting of presynaptic and postsynaptic terminals.

Postsynaptic GABA(B) Receptors Contribute to the Termination of Giant Depolarizing Potentials in CA3 Neonatal Rat Hippocampus [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017 During development, hippocampal CA3 network generates recurrent population bursts, so-called Giant Depolarizing Potentials (GDPs). GDPs are characterized by synchronous depolarization and firing of CA3 pyramidal cells followed by afterhyperpolarization ...

Membrane potential states gate synaptic consolidation in human neocortical tissue [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSynaptic mechanisms that contribute to human memory consolidation remain largely unexplored. Consolidation critically relies on sleep. During slow wave sleep, neurons exhibit characteristic membrane potential oscillations known as UP and DOWN states ...

Imperfect space clamp permits electrotonic interactions between inhibitory and excitatory synaptic conductances, distorting voltage clamp recordings. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The voltage clamp technique is frequently used to examine the strength and composition of synaptic input to neurons. Even accounting for imperfect voltage control of the entire cell membrane ("space clamp"), it is often assumed that currents measured at ...

Inference on the effect of non homogeneous inputs in Ornstein-Uhlenbeck neuronal modeling
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2020 A non-homogeneous Ornstein-Uhlembeck (OU) diffusion process is considered as a model for the membrane potential activity of a single neuron. We assume that, in the absence of stimuli, the neuron activity is described via a time-homogeneous process with ...

Molecular model of postsynaptic potential. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1975 A molecular model of the excitatory postsynaptic membrane is given in terms of two biochemical cycles intimately associated: an acetylcholine cycle and a calcium cycle. The acetylcholine controls the Na ionophores while calcium ions control the tk ionophore.

AMPA Receptor Trafficking for Postsynaptic Potentiation [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018 Long-term potentiation (LTP) of excitatory synaptic strength, which has long been considered a synaptic correlate for learning and memory, requires a fast recruitment of additional α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMPA) receptors (AMPARs) to the postsynaptic sites.
