TABLE 1.
Parameters | Description | Value |
---|---|---|
Cm/Gm | Ratio of membrane capacitance to membrane conductance for leakage | 0.5 ms |
GE, G1 | Maximum membrane conductances for excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs and IPSCs, respectively) | Adjusted to yield the strength of EPSPs and IPSPs as described in Fig. 8B |
τE, τ1 | Time constants of EPSCs and IPSCs, respectively | Adjusted so that the decay time constants of evoked EPSPs and IPSPs were 0.5 and 2 ms |
θ | Discharge threshold | 15 mV above the membrane’s resting potential |
VE | Reversal potentials for EPSCs | 55 mV above the resting potential |
V1 | Reversal potentials for IPSCs | Set equal to resting potential |
EPSP, excitatory postsynaptic potential; IPSP, inhibitory postsynaptic potential; EPSC, excitatory postsynaptic current; IPSC, inhibitory postsynaptic current.
