Looking for a model illustrating spike frequency adaptation

Managing anatomically complex model cells with the CellBuilder. Importing morphometric data with NEURON's Import3D tool or Robert Cannon's CVAPP. Where to find detailed morphometric data.

Looking for a model illustrating spike frequency adaptation

Post by careBearStare »

Hi everyone,

I'm a rather new researcher and to NEURON. I was wondering if the community could recommend any models that illustrated spike frequency adaptation in a neuron, induced by standard extended square pulse?

The model I'm working on is supposed to exhibit SFA... but frustratingly isn't. Methinks I just need to get a little smarter about adaptation and NEURON.

Thanks.

Just about any model that involves a noninactivating delayed rectifier will have spike frequency adaptation. Even the Hodgkin-Huxley model does, although HH's adaptation is nearly complete after ~ 5 spikes or so. You might search for adaptation in ModelDB modeldb.yale.edu or Channelpedia channelpedia.epfl.ch

I really appreciate the "nudge" in the right direction. I didn't even know it was seen (even a little) in the HH model.

Thank you very much.
