He referred to "the so-called cessation of firing".
However, the sigmoid is a monotonically increasing function of its input, so it cannot capture nonmonotonic response behavior, for instance cessation of firing under increasing synaptic drive due, also known as depolarization block.
Cessation of fires, prolific regeneration of ponderosa pine, and subsequent logging in 1903 has led to a very dense, even-aged ponderosa pine stand with very little understory vegetation and very few viable seeds in the soil seed bank.
All α 1KO β-cells displayed normal responses to hypoglycaemic challenge, with rapid hyperpolarization and cessation of firing, actions reversed on re-addition of 10 mM glucose.
It is believed that the complete cessation of firing of these neurons plays a permissive role in REM sleep generation [ 12].
In whole-cell current clamp recording configuration, allatostatin induced a 5.3 ± 0.8 mV hyperpolarization and cessation of firing, caused by activation of an inwardly rectifying K+ conductance, as revealed in voltage clamp recordings (n = 4).
shCont-treated GT1-7 cells displayed electrical activity in 2.5 mmol/l glucose and responded to 0.5 mmol/l glucose by hyperpolarisation and cessation of firing (Fig. 4e) in a manner indistinguishable from untreated cells.
In contrast with the lack of sensitivity over the physiological plasma glucose range (10 2.5 mmol/l) GT1-7 cells responded, reversibly, to a lower glucose concentration (0.5 mmol/l) by hyperpolarisation and cessation of firing, which occurred independently of the initial glucose concentration (Fig. 2a,b).
THE CEASE-FIRE Lifting the blockade, along with a cessation of rocket fire, was one of the key terms of the June cease-fire between Israel and Hamas.
