Sentence examples for membrane potential firing from inspiring English sources

These are often referred to as neural mass models, with state variables that track coarse grained measures of the average membrane potential, firing rates or synaptic activity.

We could not detect any difference between both genotypes in membrane potential, firing frequency and action potential shape of cerebellar PCs.

Endotoxin, administered peripherally in rats did not affect hippocampal neuron resting membrane potential, firing patterns or short term synaptic plasticity but augmented SK channel function and AHP amplitude.

These studies suggest that external calcium may modulate groups of voltage-gated ion channels and therefore change at least three intrinsic firing properties: resting membrane potential, firing threshold, and action potential frequency.

Spontaneous depolarization of membrane potential, fired by alterations in membrane currents and ion channels, occurs during pregnancy.

Often, the membrane potential firing-rate curve exhibits a linear characteristic for a given range of the voltages.

For example, there is no velocity representation (spatiotemporal interaction) or non-linear relation between membrane potential and firing rate.

Electrophysiological recordings offer a highly sensitive read-out of SGN function that can reveal differences in membrane potential and firing properties.

Irrespective of age or metabolic phenotype, subsequent electrophysiological recordings from POMCp110β null neurons demonstrated that there were no alterations to POMC neuron resting membrane potential, spike firing frequency, or input resistance in comparison to littermate control POMC neurons (Table S2).

In vivo optogenetic studies in awake, behaving animals commonly use light stimulation to elicit and measure behavioral or complex physiological changes rather than a change in membrane potential or firing rate of the manipulated neuron (Adamantidis et al., 2007; Aponte et al., 2011; Liu et al., 2012; Shabel et al., 2012; Tan et al., 2012; van Zessen et al., 2012).

Mitral cells in the non-anesthetized olfactory bulb of zebrafish and other species exhibit pronounced fluctuations in membrane potential and fire spontaneous action potentials at irregular intervals.
