The impact of spike timing variability on the signal-encoding performance of neural spiking models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
It remains unclear whether the variability of neuronal spike trains in vivo arises due to biological noise sources or represents highly precise encoding of temporally varying synaptic input signals. Determining the variability of spike timing can provide

Voltage- and Branch-Specific Climbing Fiber Responses in Purkinje Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Climbing fibers (CFs) provide instructive signals driving cerebellar learning, but mechanisms causing the variable CF responses in Purkinje cells (PCs) are not fully understood.

Voltage-stepping schemes for the simulation of spiking neural networks [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Computational Neuroscience, 2008
The numerical simulation of spiking neural networks requires particular attention. On the one hand, time-stepping methods are generic but they are prone to numerical errors and need specific treatments to deal with the discontinuities of integrate-and-fire models.

Physiological synaptic signals initiate sequential spikes at soma of cortical pyramidal neurons

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2011
The neurons in the brain produce sequential spikes as the digital codes whose various patterns manage well-organized cognitions and behaviors. A source for the physiologically integrated synaptic signals to initiate digital spikes remains unknown, which ...

The retinal pigment epithelium displays electrical excitability and lateral signal spreading

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2023
Background The non-neuronal retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) functions in intimate association with retinal photoreceptors, performing a multitude of tasks critical for maintaining retinal homeostasis and collaborating with retinal glial cells to provide

Functional differentiation of skeletal muscles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1960
According to BUCHTHAL the histogram of duration and voltage from the motor unit of biceps brachii muscles gives only one peak respectively as can be seen in Fig. 14 in his paper which reports the data covering the experiment on 1,268 motor units. However,

A Simple Self-Clamped High Step-Up DC-Dc Converter Employing Coupled Inductor

open access: yesEletrônica de Potência, 2019
This paper proposes a high-voltage-gain boost-based converter employing a coupled inductor. The proposed circuit presents high efficiency, absence of clamping circuits for limiting the voltage spikes over all semiconductor devices and reduced number of ...

Characterization of voltage-gated Ca(2+) conductances in layer 5 neocortical pyramidal neurons from rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Neuronal voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels are involved in electrical signalling and in converting these signals into cytoplasmic calcium changes. One important function of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels is generating regenerative dendritic Ca(2+) spikes ...

Theta and gamma rhythmic coding through two spike output modes in the hippocampus during spatial navigation

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Hippocampal CA1 neurons generate single spikes and stereotyped bursts of spikes. However, it is unclear how individual neurons dynamically switch between these output modes and whether these two spiking outputs relay distinct information.
