This angular threshold size can be computed from the s ...

The discrepancy between random choice at 1-2 DIV and axonal preference along L1 at 3 DIV corresponds to failures of polarization along curved lines. It is thus possible to calc ...

It is now well established that the streng ...

... What makes a Neuron “fire”? An action potential is an all-or-nothing event; the neuron fires completely or doesn’t fire at all and each time it fires, the impulse is of the same strength. This is known as the all-or-none principle. To help illustrate this point, think of a row of dominoes that are ...

These observations suggest that GABAergic nonpyramidal cells in neocortex can be divided into several functional groups on the basis of firing modes, axonal distributions, and chemical properties. The present study attempts to extend those previous results to the upper layers, where nonpyramidal cel ...

Apical dendrite

An apical dendrite is a dendrite that emerges from the apex of a pyramidal cell. Apical dendrites are one of two primary categories of dendrites, and they distinguish the pyramidal cells from spiny stellate cells in the cortices. Pyramidal cells are found in the prefrontal cortex, the hippocampus, the entorhinal cortex, the olfactory cortex, and other areas. Dendrite arbors formed by apical dendrites are the means by which synaptic inputs into a cell are integrated. The apical dendrites in these regions contribute significantly to memory, learning, and sensory associations by modulating the excitatory and inhibitory signals received by the pyramidal cells.
