  1. Coincidence detection in neurobiology

    for the electronic device Coincidence circuit Coincidence detection in the context of neurobiology is a process by which a neuron or a neural circuit can encode information by detecting the occurrence of timely simultaneous yet spatially separate input signals. Coincidence detectors are important in information processing by reducing temporal jitter , reducing spontaneous activity, and forming associations between separate neural events. This concept has led to a greater understanding of neural processes and the formation of computational maps in the brain. Principles of coincidence detection Image Spatial summation.JPG thumb right Fig. 1 Two EPSP s innervated in rapid succession sum to produce a larger EPSP or even an action potential in the postsynaptic cell. Coincidence detection relies on separate inputs converging on a common target. Consider a basic neural circuit with two input neurons, A and B, that have excitatory synaptic terminals converging on a single output neuron, C Fig. 1 . If each input neuron s EPSP is subthreshold for an action potential at C, then C will not fire unless the two inputs from A and B are temporally close together. Synchronous arrival of these two inputs may push the membrane potential of a target neuron over the threshold required to create an action potential. If the two inputs arrive too far apart, the depolarization of the first input may have time to drop significantly, preventing the membrane potential of the target neuron from reaching the action potential threshold. This example incorporates the principles of spatial summation spatial and temporal summation . Furthermore, coincidence detection can reduce the jitter formed by spontaneous ... of the postsynaptic cell to glutamate Purves 2004 . See also Neurobiology Sound localization Long ....

  1. Tetanic stimulation

    Cleanup date October 2007 In neurobiology, a tetanic stimulation consists of a high frequency sequence of individual stimulations of a neuron . It is associated with long term potentiation . High frequency stimulation causes an increase in release called post tetanic potentiation Kandel 2003 . This presynaptic event is caused by calcium influx . Calcium protein interactions then produce a change in Synaptic vesicle vesicle exocytosis . Tetanic stimulation is used to detect a non depolarizing block or a depolarizing block on the neuromuscular junction. Lower elicitations of tetanic stimulation in aged muscles were shown to be caused by lower levels of anaerobic energy provision in skeletal muscles Campbell, Marsh, Spriet, 1991 .
